Answer: 0.3 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to turn one of those into a fraction or decimal to make things easier for us. Lets turn [tex]1 \frac{1}{5}[/tex] into a decimal.

1 1/5 as a decimal is 1.2.

Now we compare the two

[tex]1.5 > 1.2[/tex]

Now we need to subtract 1.5 by 1.2 to see how much more he jumps by.

[tex]1.5 - 1.2 = 0.3[/tex]

Steve jumps more by 0.3 meters.
