A Correct answer
Explanation

Working through the inner parentheses first: 2+2=4, then 2/2=1, so 1*4*2=8, then 8-2=6, then 2+6=8, then 2*8=16, which is option A. This requires careful application of order operations - work from innermost parentheses outward. Option C (8) is a common error if you stop halfway through the calculation.
