According to BODMAS the order for all mathematical operations goes as follows: B : Bracket O : Of D : Division M : Multiplication A : Addition S : Subtraction Now according to this we have to multiply before we add, so the equation becomes 2 + (2*2) = 2+4 = 6 so i think the answer is 6

The answer is 6 because when you solve an equation, multiplication comes first then division then addition and lastly subtraction.

I believe the answer is 6. Cause you have to multiply first and then add. Am I right?

Is it 6? It is either 6 or eight. it all depends on the order of operations. But I'll go with 6.
