Sure, let's solve the expression [tex]\(10^4 \div 2^2\)[/tex] step by step.
1. Evaluate [tex]\(10^4\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[
10^4 = 10 \times 10 \times 10 \times 10 = 10000
\][/tex]
2. Evaluate [tex]\(2^2\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[
2^2 = 2 \times 2 = 4
\][/tex]
3. Perform the division [tex]\(10^4 \div 2^2\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[
\frac{10^4}{2^2} = \frac{10000}{4} = 2500
\][/tex]
So, the result of [tex]\(10^4 \div 2^2\)[/tex] is 2500.
