\[ -14 + 0.2 = - \frac{69}{5} = -13.8 \]

The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{-14}{1}\) and \(\frac{2}{10}\) is \(10\). \[ \begin{aligned} -14 + 0.2 &= \frac{-14 \cdot 10}{1 \cdot 10} + \frac{2 \cdot 1}{10 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{-140 + 2}{10} \\ &= \frac{-138}{10} \\&= - \frac{69}{5} \end{aligned} \]
