Step-by-step explanation:

Okey dokey my dude, here's the deal. All you have to do to answer this is use order of operations (parentheses exponents multiplication division addition subtraction).

8÷2(2+2)=?

//parenthesis first

8÷2(4)

//Ok here's where people will mess up. They just look at the problem and assume that you should multiply the 2 and (4) first because the 4 is in parenthesis. That's understandable, but wrong. What the equation should really look like is 8÷2·4. So you should do 8÷2 first.

8÷2·4=?

4·4=?

16=16
