Hi there! :)

Answer:

C. 4

*The answer must have a positive sign.*

Explanation:

PEMDAS

Stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponent

Multiply

Divide

Add

Subtract

Left to right.

First, you multiply/divide by the numbers from left to right.

12/2+4-2*3

12/2=6

6+4-2*3

2*3=6

6+4-6

Then you add/subtract by the numbers from left to right.

6+4=10

10-6=4

Final answer is 4.

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day! :)

:D
