Problem

What is the value of the expression in decimal form?

\[\frac{44}{11}+\frac{110}{44}+\frac{44}{1100}\]

$\textbf{(A) } 6.4 \qquad\textbf{(B) } 6.504 \qquad\textbf{(C) } 6.54 \qquad\textbf{(D) } 6.9 \qquad\textbf{(E) } 6.94$

Solution 1

We see $\frac{44}{11}=4$, $\frac{110}{44}=2.5$, and $\frac{44}{1100}=0.04$. Thus, $4+2.5+0.04=\boxed{\textbf{(C) }6.54}$
