Right but you don't know if the 2(2+2) is the entire denominator or if it's just 2. It's intentionally deceiving just like the million other problems like it.

It would have to be written 8/(2(2+2)) if the 2(2+2) were the whole denominator.

Like I always say in these threads, it's not deceiving to anyone that understands math. There is nothing subjective about the question in the OP. People are just dumb.
