This short math puzzle asks you to solve 8 ÷ 2 + 2. The numbers are easy, but the correct order still matters.
The correct answer is 6.
Division comes before addition, so start with 8 ÷ 2 = 4. Then add the remaining 2:
4 + 2 = 6.
Some people get caught because they rush or assume the puzzle must contain a hidden trick. In this case, it does not. You simply follow the standard order of operations.
The expression is a good reminder that even very small equations should be read carefully. If your answer was 6, you handled it correctly.
