Answer:

0.4

Explanation:

consider this like some lines overlapping each other.

one line (A) is 0.5 long, the other (B) 0.4 long.

together they are 0.8 long.

that means that they overlap at a length of 0.1 (they share a segment 0.1 long).

of the combined line of 0.8 that has 0.1 of a joined segment, the complimentary part of B is therefore 0.4 (0.8 minus the original length of B).
