  • Q #2: (frac{[2 (8 + 2 * 6)]}{(16 div 2)} = frac{40}{8} = 5) Simplify the expression above. Which of the following is correct?

    A. 6

    B. 2

    C. 5

    D. 3

    Answer Explanation

    We follow the order of operations to solve the given expression.

    First, we start with the numerator and solve

    [2(8+2*6)]

    We start with multiplication in inner brackets, 2*6=12. The expression becomes

    [2(8+12)]

    Then, we conduct the addition of 8+12=20. Then, the expression yields

    [2(20)] = 2*20 = 40

    Now, we solve for denominator, which is 16/2=8.

    Thus, the expression is reduced into

    (frac{[2 (8 + 2 * 6)]}{(16 div 2)} = frac{40}{8} = 5)

    The expression reduces into 5.
