Answer:

(2y-4)cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given question we have (4y-8) divided by 2

which can be written mathematically as [tex]\frac{\left ( 4y-8 \right )cm}{2}[/tex]

Now (4y-8) is a quatity  with unit cm. and the whole expression is in parentheses. Moreover, two quatity can only be added or subtracted only when their units are same. Therefore 4y and 8 must have same unit that is cm.

Therefore, [tex]\frac{\left ( 4y-8 \right )cm}{2}=(2y-4)cm[/tex] and not anything else
