C.
0.2
D.
-0.2

1 answer

To evaluate the expression \(0.4 - 0.2 + 0.8 + (-0.8)\), follow these steps:

  1. Calculate \(0.4 - 0.2\): \[ 0.4 - 0.2 = 0.2 \]

  2. Add \(0.8\) to the result: \[ 0.2 + 0.8 = 1.0 \]

  3. Now, add \(-0.8\) to that result: \[ 1.0 + (-0.8) = 1.0 - 0.8 = 0.2 \]

Thus, the value of the expression is \(0.2\).

The answer is C. 0.2.
