Correct Answer: 0.2 and 0.6


Solution : Given: $\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)+\left[1 \frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{2}\right] \times\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)$
= $\frac{1}{5}+[\frac{5}{4}-\frac{1}{2}]×\frac{2}{5}$
= $\frac{1}{5}+\frac{3}{4}×\frac{2}{5}$
= $\frac{1}{5}+\frac{3}{10}$
= $\frac{5}{10}$
= $\frac{1}{2}$
= 0.5, which lies between 0.2 and 0.6.
Hence, the correct answer is 0.2 and 0.6.
