Question

what is the value of the expression? 4(6/10−1/5)+0.4 enter your answer, in simplest form, in the box.

Answer 1

Answer: 2.0

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression : $4(\dfrac{6}{10}-\dfrac{1}{5})+0.4$

To solve the given expression , we need to follow BODMAS (Bracket→ Of Divide→ Multiplication →Add →Subtract).

According to BODMAS , first we simplified the expression present inside the brackets .

$4(\dfrac{6-2(1)}{10})+0.4$  [10= LCM[10,5]]

$=4(\dfrac{6-2}{10})+0.4$

$=4(\dfrac{4}{10})+0.4$

$=(\dfrac{4\times4}{10})+0.4$   [Multiply]

$=(\dfrac{16}{10})+0.4$   [Simplify]

$=1.6+0.4=2.0$ [Add]

Hence, the value of the expression in the simplified form = 2.0
