• A. 3.62
• B. 0.38
• C. 0.48
• D. 0.52

Answer 1

The correct option is C

0.48

We need to find the value of $8.25-\frac{23}{100}-\frac{456}{100}-\mathrm{2.98.}$

We first convert the given fractions to decimals.
$\frac{23}{100}=0.23\frac{456}{100}=4.56\therefore 8.25-\frac{23}{100}-\frac{456}{100}-2.98=8.25-0.23-4.56-2.98$

We first subtract 0.23 from 8.25 to get 8.02.
We then subtract 4.56 from 8.02 to get 3.46.
Lastly, we subtract 2.98 from 3.46 to get 0.48.
