Answer:

In first case it is (8+6) whole divided by 2 that is 8/2+6/2 where u will get the answer 7.

in next case it is (8/6) then divided by 2

which will be 8/6*1/2.

(while converting from division to multiplication remember to take the reciprocal of the number after division sign in this 2 will become 1/2)

so and will be 8/12. 2/3 will be the answer....
