Sure! Let's break down the addition of two numbers, [tex]\(2 + 2\)[/tex], step by step.
Step 1: Identify the numbers to be added.
We have the numbers 2 and 2.
Step 2: Understand the operation.
We are performing an addition operation, denoted by the plus sign (+).
Step 3: Add the numbers.
Start by adding the first number:
[tex]\[ 2 \][/tex]
Then, add the second number to the result.
[tex]\[ 2 + 2 \][/tex]
Step 4: Calculate the sum.
When you add 2 and 2 together, you get 4.
So, the result of [tex]\( 2 + 2 \)[/tex] is [tex]\( 4 \)[/tex].
Therefore:
[tex]\[ 2 + 2 = 4 \][/tex]
