The answer is 1.73

Explanation:

The equation that we need to solve is 1.2 + 0.8 ÷ 4 – 3(0.7 – 0.81)

The order of operations are:

1. evaluate what's inside the parentheses
2. exponents
3. multiply or divide from left to right
4. add or subtract from left to right

These are the steps I took to solve the equation:

1. 1.2 + 0.8 ÷ 4 – 3(0.7 – 0.81)
2. 1.2+0.8÷4−3×−0.11
3. 1.2+0.2−3×−0.11
4. 1.2+0.2−(−0.33)
5. 1.2+0.2+0.33
6. 1.4+0.33=1.73
