Using the order of operations, also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division from left to right, Addition and Subtraction from left to right), we can evaluate the expression:
12/4 + 6 - 2 × 4
First, we perform the multiplication: 2 × 4 = 8
We have: 12/4 + 6 - 8
Next, we perform the division: 12/4 = 3
We have: 3 + 6 - 8
Finally, we perform the addition and subtraction from left to right:
3 + 6 = 9
9 - 8 = 1
Therefore, the expression evaluates to 1.
12/4 + 6 - 2 × 4
First, we perform the multiplication: 2 × 4 = 8
We have: 12/4 + 6 - 8
Next, we perform the division: 12/4 = 3
We have: 3 + 6 - 8
Finally, we perform the addition and subtraction from left to right:
3 + 6 = 9
9 - 8 = 1
Therefore, the expression evaluates to 1.
