For this case we must compare the following expressions:

[tex]1.2\\1 \frac {1} {5}[/tex]

We convert the mixed number to a fraction:

[tex]1 \frac {1} {5} = \frac {5 * 1 + 1} {5} = \frac {5 + 1} {5} = \frac {6} {5} = 1.2[/tex]

So, we have to compare:

1.2 and 1.2

It is observed that the expressions are equal, so we have the sign of equality "=":

[tex]1.2 = 1.2[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]1.2 = 1.2[/tex]
