Detailed Answer with Explanation:

Step 1: Make the decimals the same length.

0.07 = 0.070

0.008 = 0.008

Step 2: Add digit by digit from the right (thousandths place first).

Thousandths: 0 + 8 = 8 → 0.008

Step 3: Move one place left (hundredths place).

Hundredths: 7 + 0 = 7 → 0.078

Step 4: Move one more place left (tenths place).

Tenths: 0 + 0 = 0 → 0.078

Result: 0.07 + 0.008 = 0.078.
