It can't be anything else. Unless you wrote it stupidly. You see this is why...
6÷2(1+2)
2×1 2×2
6÷6
=1
If that is not the answer than every book, website, teacher, and calculator has lied to me.

Edited by Æsir: 2/28/2016 1:46:42 AMNo, you just weren't paying attention the answer is 9. You need to work left to right while following the order of operations.6/2(1+2)=6/2(3) 6/2(3)=3(3) 3(3)=3x3 3x3=9 9

[i]*engages orbalisk armor*[/i] So it's that you wrote it stupidity. In that case though the answer is 9, but with how you typed it it can also be 1. So I correct.
-
He did not right it stupidity. Your second grade teacher taught you stupidly.
-
[i]*engages orbalisk armor*[/i] Why would my second grade teacher be teaching me this level of stuff? And yes, he wrote it stupidly. With the way he wrote it, made it where you have to distribute the 2 into the (x). I'm sorry that I'm used to doing things correctly.
-
This is order of operations, not distributive property. There is no variable to apply to the equation. Could he written it better? Yes. But(to my knowledge of math) his intentions were the answer nine.
-
It still could be one. So that means that with they way he had wrote it that he it could be both 1 and 9
-
No. 6/2(2+1) 6/2(3) 3(3) 9
-
Or 6÷2 (1+2) 2×1+2×2 6÷6 1
-
It wasn't written stupidly. It was to test you. And you would have gotten it right if you payed attention

I'm not the op
