1 answer

To solve this expression, follow the standard order of operations (also known as PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition and Subtraction) from left to right:

First, we need to simplify the parentheses.
6 - 4 = 2.

Now, we can substitute the simplified value into the expression:
6/2 + 1.

Next, we perform the division:
6 ÷ 2 = 3.

Finally, we add 1 to the result:
3 + 1 = 4.

Therefore, 6/(6-4)+1 = 4.
