Answer:

15.8

Explanation:

Well if you had to round to the nearest tenth then 12.896 would be 12.9 and 2.93 would be 2.9. The reason is if it is below 5 then you would round down if it is more than 5 then round up. Then add the two numbers which are 12.9+2.9=15.8

Hope it helps. Sorry if it does not!

12.826+2.93= 15.756

Since you have to round it, your final answer would be 15.8
