Final answer:

To solve this problem, you should first perform the division, then the multiplication, and finally the addition, in accordance to the order of operations (PEMDAS). You end up with an approximate answer of 1.207.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem requires knowledge of the order of operations, commonly remembered as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents (ie Powers and Square Roots, etc.), Multiplication and Division, Addition and Subtraction). Here's how you might solve it:

  1. First, calculate 1 divided by root 2, which is approximately 0.707.
  2. Multiply that result by 1 (which will keep it the same)
  3. Next, calculate 1 divided by 2, which is 0.5.
  4. Finally, add your two results together. 0.707 + 0.5 = 1.207
