You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(88.8\)

MathBot Answer:

\[ 88.8 = \frac{444}{5} = 88.8 \]


The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{88}{1}\) and \(\frac{8}{10}\) is \(10\). \[ \begin{aligned} 88.8 &= \frac{88 \cdot 10}{1 \cdot 10} + \frac{8 \cdot 1}{10 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{880 + 8}{10} \\ &= \frac{888}{10} \\&= \frac{444}{5} \end{aligned} \]
