Answer 1

To solve the expression \( 21 \div 3 + 4 + |2 - 3| \), we will break it down step by step.

1. Calculate \( 21 \div 3 \): \[ 21 \div 3 = 7 \]

2. Calculate \( |2 - 3| \): \[ |2 - 3| = | -1 | = 1 \]

3. Now substitute these values back into the expression: \[ 7 + 4 + 1 \]

4. Perform the addition: \[ 7 + 4 = 11 \] \[ 11 + 1 = 12 \]

So, the final result is \( 12 \).

The correct answer is 12.
