To calculate the expression \( 24 \div 4 + 2 \), we need to follow the correct order of operations, which is:
- Division and multiplication (from left to right)
- Addition and subtraction (from left to right)
Now, let's work through the expression step by step:
-
Start with the division: \[ 24 \div 4 = 6 \]
-
Now, substitute that back into the expression: \[ 6 + 2 \]
-
Finally, perform the addition: \[ 6 + 2 = 8 \]
So, the final result of the expression \( 24 \div 4 + 2 \) is \( 8 \).
