Math Problem Statement

(6÷3×4÷2)2 = ______

Solution

Let's solve this step-by-step:

  1. Start with the expression inside the parentheses:
    6÷3×4÷26 \div 3 \times 4 \div 2.

  2. Perform each operation from left to right (as multiplication and division have the same precedence, we follow the order from left to right):

    • 6÷3=26 \div 3 = 2
    • 2×4=82 \times 4 = 8
    • 8÷2=48 \div 2 = 4

So, the expression inside the parentheses simplifies to 44.

  1. Now, multiply this result by 22: 4×2=84 \times 2 = 8

Answer: (6÷3×4÷2)×2=8(6 \div 3 \times 4 \div 2) \times 2 = 8
