Math Problem Statement

Add: 2/10 + (4/10 + 1/10). Simplify if possible.

Solution

The expression given is:

210+(410+110)\frac{2}{10} + \left( \frac{4}{10} + \frac{1}{10} \right)

Step 1: Simplify the terms inside the parentheses

410+110=510\frac{4}{10} + \frac{1}{10} = \frac{5}{10}

Step 2: Add this result to 210\frac{2}{10}

210+510=710\frac{2}{10} + \frac{5}{10} = \frac{7}{10}

Thus, the final simplified answer is:

710\frac{7}{10}
