To simplify the expression \((1.1 - 0.3) \div 8 + 4 \times 3\), we follow the order of operations:

  1. Calculate inside the parentheses: \(1.1 - 0.3 = 0.8\)

  2. Rewrite the expression with the result: \(0.8 \div 8 + 4 \times 3\)

  3. Perform division and multiplication from left to right:

    • Calculate \(0.8 \div 8 = 0.1\)
    • Calculate \(4 \times 3 = 12\)
  4. Now rewrite the expression: \(0.1 + 12\)

  5. Perform the addition: \(0.1 + 12 = 12.1\)

The final simplified result is 12.1.
