I think my answer of 9 is right.

I think the answer is never post a plus sign when you mean a division sign. It causes unnecessary math.

Hi friends.

Alright guys... I don't know...

hell no. historical my ass. they do that because 2(1+2) is a reduction from 2*2 + 2*1

 

[kryss]

haha you were the one that post pemdas

Lol... I took my response back.

I'm 99% sure I'm right.

6 ÷ 2 (2 + 1) = 9.
6 ÷ 2 (3) = 9
3(3) = 9
9 = 9

 

[Sybaris]

parenthesis first then exponents

6 / 2(2+1)
6 / (2*2 + 2*1)
6 / (6)

1

It all depends on how you were taught, but classical "pemdas" is:

it's parentheses and exponents on the same level left to right
then multiplication and division from left to right
then addition and subtraction from left to right

6 / 2 * (2 + 1)
6 / 2 * 3
3 * 3
9

 

[Kadauchi]

parenthesis first then exponents

6 / 2(2+1)
6 / (2*2 + 2*1)
6 / (6)

1

Its inside of parenthesis, 6 / 2(2+1) = 6 / 2 * (2+1)

Yes, it's definitely 9.

Good night turkeys, this math killed my brain. Have a good weekend and whatnot.

edit: Or don't, I'm not your boss.

Looking like this will be the final version. (Besides maybe adding a search tab)

Hi friends.

?

 

[hyway]

Its inside of parenthesis, 6 / 2(2+1) = 6 / 2 * (2+1)

is 2x+3x the same as x(2+3)

ok I am an old man and learned it different . I say the answer is 1. it was 1 when i was in school and
it was 1 when they sent men to the moon lol. Maybe shit like this is why we can't get back to the moon

Yes
x=3;

2x+3x = 15
2*3 + 3*3 = 15
6 + 9 = 15
15 = 15

x(2+3) = 15
3 * (2+3) = 15
3 * (5) = 15
15 = 15

And we aren't shooting for the moon anymore, the new target is Mars.
