Question

evaluate the expression ( 1^4 x (5+3) )/ (6 - 2) ) ^2

Answer 1

Let's evaluate the expression step by step.

The expression is:

\[
\left( \frac{1^4 \times (5 + 3)}{6 - 2} \right)^2
\]

1. **Calculate \(1^4\)**:

\[
1^4 = 1
\]

2. **Calculate \(5 + 3\)**:

\[
5 + 3 = 8
\]

3. **Multiply the results**:

\[
1 \times 8 = 8
\]

4. **Calculate \(6 - 2\)**:

\[
6 - 2 = 4
\]

5. **Divide the results**:

\[
\frac{8}{4} = 2
\]

6. **Square the result**:

\[
2^2 = 4
\]

Thus, the value of the expression is

\[
\boxed{4}
\]
