Answer:

D. (1.6 + 3) × (4 − 2) ÷ 2

Explanation:

The order of operations requires that multiplication and division be done in order of appearance, left to right, before addition and subtraction. Operations in parentheses take priority.

To get 4.6, you need to add 3 to 1.6. The various forms of 3×4-2÷2 all give 12-1 = 11, not 3.

The grouping that gets it right is ...

(1.6 + 3) × (4 − 2) ÷ 2

= 4.6×2÷2

= 9.2÷2

= 4.6
