So, 3 tenths is
(3)/(10)

I understand it as: the answer will be 80% plus
(3)/(10) of 80 %, how much is that?


(3)/(10)*80= (3*80)/(10)=(3*8)/(1)=24

so we have to add 24% to 80: this is 104.

so 104% is 3/10th times greater than 80%.

we know that



3 tenths is equal to


(3)/(10) =0.30



80% is equal to


(80)/(100) =0.80

so



3 tenths greater than
80% is equal to add


0.30+0.80=1.10

therefore


the answer is


1.10
