If you use multiplication B4 division, you get 1

If you use division B4 multiplication you get 16

i was wondering this question because if you used distributive property, you would get 8/8 = 1

Where my parents come from instead of PEMDAS they use BODMAS where division comes first, and I grew up learning that.

2+2 = 4, 2*4 = 8, 8/8 = 1, answer is 1!!

I'm not sure if this question is multiplication, addition, subtraction, or division, so i did all

Multiplication: 8/2*(2+2)= 16

Addition:8/2+(2+2)= 8

Subtraction:8/2+(2+2)=0

Division: 8/2 / (2+2)= 1

This will just be 8/(8) which is 1
