8 ÷ 2(2 + 2) = ?

8 ÷ 2(2 + 2) = ?

Answer

The correct answer is ****

Explanation:
This problem involves order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).First, evaluate inside the parentheses: \(2 + 2 = 4).The expression becomes: \( ÷ 2(4)\).
Next, division and multiplication are of equal precedence and are evaluated from to right.So, first: \(8 ÷ 2 = 4\).
: \(4times4 = 16\

**Steps:**
1. parentheses: \(2 + 2 = 4\).

  1. Rewrite expression: \(8 ÷ 2 \times 4\).
  2. Perform: \(8 ÷ 2 = 4\).4. Perform multiplication:4 \times 4 = 16\).

Therefore, the final is 16.
