To solve the expression \(2 + 2 \times 2\), you need to follow the order of operations, often remembered by the acronym PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)).
First, handle the multiplication: \[ 2 \times 2 = 4 \]
Then, add that result to the remaining 2: \[ 2 + 4 = 6 \]
So, \(2 + 2 \times 2 = 6\).
