To solve the expression \(2 + 2 \times 2\), you should follow the order of operations (often remembered by the acronym PEMDAS/BODMAS: Parentheses/Brackets, Exponents/Orders, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)).
First, handle the multiplication: \(2 \times 2 = 4\)
Then, perform the addition: \(2 + 4 = 6\)
So, \(2 + 2 \times 2 = 6\).
