Problem

What is the value of the expression in decimal form?

$\frac{44}{11}+\frac{110}{44}+\frac{44}{1100}$

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

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