we are given the following expression:


10+4\mleft(6-2\mright)

To solve this expression we will first use the distributive property in the parenthesis, like this:


10+4*6-4*2

Solving the operations:


10+24-8

Now we solve the subtraction:


10+16

Now we solve the addition:


26

Therefore, the answer is 26.
