Answer 1

You don't have to use Select-Object cmdlet multiple time.

Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_IP4RouteTable -Filter "Destination = '0.0.0.0' AND Mask = '0.0.0.0'" |    
        Sort-Object metric1 | Select-Object -First 1 -ExpandProperty nexthop

or

(Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_IP4RouteTable -Filter "Destination = '0.0.0.0' AND Mask = '0.0.0.0'" |    
        Sort-Object metric1 | Select-Object -First 1).nexthop
