Well obviously we are supposed to find the reduction potential of C a A l Ca||Al . Now, E A l K = E A l L i + E L i K E_{Al||K} = E_{Al||Li} +E_{Li||K} , which gives , E A l K = 1.37 + 0.11 = 1.26 E_{Al||K} = -1.37 + 0.11 = -1.26 Then, E K A l = ( E A l K ) = 1.26 E_{K||Al} = -(E_{Al||K}) = 1.26 and, E C a K = ( E K C a ) = 0.05 E_{Ca||K} = -(E_{K||Ca}) = -0.05 Finally we get, E C a A l = E C a K + E K A l = 0.05 + 1.26 = 1.21 E_{Ca||Al} = E_{Ca||K} + E_{K||Al} = -0.05 + 1.26 =\boxed{1.21}

PS: Even im not sure if my solution is ryt so comment if my approach is wrong ;)

but dude electrode potential is intensive property it is not additive we have use the relation of gibs free energy relation with electrode potential concept of this question

Since delG=-nFE(cell) And n just happens to be a fixed Scalar in this case We can directly operate with E values
