Answer:

1.66

---------

First find the value of 8 divided by 10 because they are in parentheses.


10/8 = 1.25

Divide 6 by 1.25


6 / 0.8 = 4.8

Then, divide by 4


4.8 / 4 = 1.2

Finally, divide 2 by 1.2


2 / 1.2 = 1.66

The answer should be 1.66 if you do the problem right to left(because of the order of operations).
