Evaluate the expression: \(16 - \frac{8}{2 \cdot \left(2 + 2\right)}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[16 - \frac{8}{2 \cdot \left(2 + 2\right)} = 15\]


\[\begin{aligned}16 - \frac{8}{2 \cdot \left(2 + 2\right)}& = 16 - 8 \cdot \frac{1}{2 \cdot \left(2 + 2\right)}\\& = 16 - 8 \cdot \frac{1}{2 \cdot 4}\\& = 16 - \frac{8}{8}\\& = 16 - 1\\& = 15\end{aligned}\]
