Answer:

11.4

eleven and 4 tenths

Explanation:

Step 1

turn four and six tenths in standard form

4.6

Step 2

turn six and either tenths into standard form

6.8

Step 3

put them into a mathematic equation form of addition

4.6+6.8

Step 4

when adding start from the far right

first add 6 and 8 which is 14

sense you cant just put 14 down only put 4 and carry the one by putting it above the 4 in the ones place.

Step 5

add the numbers 4 and 6 in the ones place

4 + 6 = 10 but sense there is a one being carried from the tenth place you have to add that 1 which will give you 11

so the answer is

11.4 : eleven and four tenths

both are the same numbers

Four and six tenths plus six and eight tenths-example-1
