Step-by-step solution

First let's work out the numerator of the fraction:

0.18+0.37=0.55 0.18+0.37=0.55

Now we can work out the denominator of the fraction, starting with the division exercise below:

21=2 \frac{2}{1}=2

This gives us the following:

89+132= 89+13-2=

Then we can solve from left to right:

89+13=102 89+13=102

1022=100 102-2=100

This gives us the following:

0.55100=0.55:100 \frac{0.55}{100}=0.55:100

We will then move the decimal point two places to the left—due to the two zeros of 100—to get the answer:

0.0055 0.0055
