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

Answer 2

The value of a is 2/5.

Explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

`1.7a+0.3a=(4)/(5)`

We need to solve the equation for a.

Add the like terms.

`2a=(4)/(5)`

Divide both the sides by 2.

`(2a)/(2)=(4)/(5* 2)`

`a=(2)/(5)`

Hence the value of a is 2/5.
