Answer 1

1.7a+0.3a=4/5
2a = 4/5
  a = 4/5 * 1/2
  a = 4/10
  a = 2/5

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of a is 2/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.  

$1.7a+0.3a=\frac{4}{5}$

We need to solve the equation for a.

Add the like terms.

$2a=\frac{4}{5}$

Divide both the sides by 2.

$\frac{2a}{2}=\frac{4}{5\times 2}$

$a=\frac{2}{5}$

Hence the value of a is 2/5.
