6/2(1+2)

[Kalphiter]

Following Order of Operations:

6/2(1+2)
6/2(3)
6/6
1.

Multiplication and division are of the same precedence, you have to solve mult/div problems left to right.

6/2(1+2)
6/2(3)
(3)(3)

You guys need to go back to school

See my problem here is that by righting the division with / rather than the line with a dot above and below, you cancel out the left to right because it means that the 6 is the numerator and 2(1+2) is the denominator.

/ is the exact same as a regular division sign as is * is mutliplication. As I know.

I read that as 6 over 2(1+2).
So 6 over 6, 6/6=1

If it was 9 it would be written as: (6/2)*(1+2)

Even if it was a fraction, it does not matter because a fraction is a division problem

Parenthesis are first.
Then multiplication.

Wrong.

What. It's exponents.

[steve5451]

What. It's exponents.

I don't see exponents in that problem.

[Kalphiter]

I don't see exponents in that problem.

Either way, you're still wrong.

BOMDAS
B
Brackets first
O
Orders (ie Powers and Square Roots, etc.)
D
Multiplication
M
Division
A
Addition
S
Subtraction last.

This is the one key to getting everything right. Usually you only need to know that it's brackets then squares..

Jesus christ people, I learned this in 3rd grade.

Let's solve this step by step.

1. Start with the parenthesis. 1+2 = 3.
2. From left to right, Division comes in front of Multiplication. 6/2 = 3.
3. Now we multiply. 3x3 = 9.
