Do the numerator (top) and denominator (bottom) separately.

$4 - 6 = - 2$ $4 - 6 = -2$ , therefore the numerator is ${(- 2)}^{2}$ $(-2)^2$ , or 4.

$\frac{24}{12} = 2$ $24/12 = 2$ , therefore the denominator is 2.

The fraction ends up as $\frac{4}{2}$ $4/2$ , which is 2.

How do you evaluate (4−6)224÷12\frac { ( 4- 6) ^ { 2} } { 24\div 12}?
