12 divided by (6) + 4 squared as associative property

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 12 divided by (6) + 4 squared

Algebraic expression will be ⇒ 12 : 6 + 4²

We will use associative property to solve the expression, we will combine some numbers and operations with parenthesis to do it first.

So, the given expression = 12 : 6 + 4²

= 12 : 6 + 4 * 4

= (12 : 6) + (4 * 4)

= 2 + 16

= 18
