  • Evaluate the exponents.
  • Perform Multiplication and division from left to right.
  • Perform addition and subtraction from left to right.
02

Step 2.  Add from left to right

To evaluate the given expression1.3+6.8+2.7, first add the two numbers from left to right and then add the resulting number with the last number as shown below

1.3+6.8+2.7=1.3+6.8+2.7=8.1+2.7=8.1+2.7

03

Step 3.  Add the numbers

Now to simplify further, add the resulting number with the last number to get

1.3+6.8+2.7=8.1+2.7=10.8

Thus, the value of the expression is 10.8.
