The expression is:
(0.8)
2
+(0.4)

?
?? Shortcut (No long calculation)
Recognize the identity:
a

=(a

)
So,
a
2
+b

a
4
-b

?
=a
2
-b

Here,
a=0.8
b=0.4
Therefore,
=0.8

Now,
0.8

Solution
Actually it simplly used the formula (a^2 -b^2) =(a+b)(a-b)

Explanation
Question: (0.8)^4 – (0.4)^4 / (0.8)^2 + (0.4)^2
Answer: (0.8*0.8*0.8*0.8)-(0.4*0.4*0.4*0.4) / (0.8*0.8) + (0.4*0.4)
You can now cancel 0.8*0.8 in the numerator with the 0.8*0.8 in the denominator, in the same way, do for 0.4 ,
Therefore we get,
=(0.8*0.8)-(0.4*0.4)
=0.64-0.16
=0.48
