What is the result of (9 ÷ 3) × (8 ÷ 4)?

The correct answer is: 6

To solve the expression (9 ÷ 3) × (8 ÷ 4), we start by performing the operations within each set of parentheses first. Calculating the first part, 9 divided by 3 equals 3. Next, we evaluate the second part, 8 divided by 4, which results in 2. Now we multiply the results from both calculations together: 3 × 2 equals 6. Thus, the final result of the expression is 6. This confirms that the answer provided accurately reflects the operations: performing division before multiplication, and then multiplying the results together to reach the correct outcome.
