4, it is four because you have to do 4 divided by 2,then,you have to bring down the other numbers that are over there, and it's a two. So then you add because it says 2+2,when your done with the problem.

You should try these steps on paper and pencil to help you with orders of operation. P E M D A S. P is for parenthesis, make sure you do your parenthesis first, before anything, even if it's multiplication or division. E is for exponents, you don't have to worry about that in this problem ,but that is just something squared. M or D can go first, it's whatever one goes in a straight line first. So if it was 27 divided by 9+3-5. You would always do the division first in that problem , but if it was like this 24-4+3 divided by1, the dividing would still come first. If it had multiplication and division, you would do whatever one comes first, like if your reading a book. A and S is for adding and subtracting, it's the same thing you do with m and d, except you have to add and subtract.

A way to remember the abbreviation pemdas is Please excuse my dear aunt sally. The way you could also remember is if you have an aunt with her first name with an s, this is what I say Please Excuse My Dumb Aunt Shannon (you just have to change Shannon to your aunt's name with an s ,if you don't have an aunt's name with an s, just use sally, and if you do use that instead.) If you think dumb is to mean you could also use dear like the real version is.
