This equation looks simple, but multiplication and division must be completed before addition.
The expression is:
4 + 8 × 0 + 4 ÷ 1
First:
8 × 0 = 0
4 ÷ 1 = 4
Now complete the addition:
4 + 0 + 4 = 8
The zero affects only the number multiplied by it, while dividing by one leaves the number unchanged.
Answer: 8
