If PEMDAS is true it's literally 15

division and multiplication are the same thing. it goes right to left by convention. so, 9.

Nothing as it doesn't contain the =

Friendly reminder that RPN is superior form of mathematical notation and that the Poles are the master race.

notation ambiguity. I refuse to answer

You can still evaluate it to 9.

Pemdas works in theory but in practice it is a lie. Multiplication and division happen in order. Same with addition and subtraction.

. / . = 1, so 6*1*2*3 = 36

>PEMDAS
the one who invented this should off himself

why the fuck would you go out of order just because of parentheses. Specially when those parentheses have to be there because you want addition to precede multiplication.

Luckily programming languages were sane enough to adopt a system which makes fucking sense

6÷3(1+2) = 9

6
---------- = 1
3(1+2)

6/9 is 1
wut

You get rid of the parenthesis first tho

the correct response is to punch people who give equations in that format, because the interpretations aren't standardized and the answer is therefore always wrong

go back to with your shit meme

6/2(1+2)
6/2+4
3+4

It's 1. (1+2) is 3, 2*3 is 6, 6/6 is 1. Do none of you know the order of operations?

The parenthesis has a 2 in front of it. So you must multiply into it when you get rid of it.

I thought this too but the u remembered you dont the p in pemdas doesnt mean distribute and solve. It means solve inside the parethesis only and then left to right divides and multiply

I do not appoligizes for phone posting this poorly but it is for sure 9

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

9
Jesus fucking christ, Jow Forums.

>9
Show us please, In a very detailed manner.

Brainlets

once you get rid of parenthesis and exponents you literally go from left to right with multiplication and division

6/2(1+2)
That 2(1+2) means 2*1+2*2 silly

haha there are different order of operations rules people use simply epic troll 200+ posts

Sure but see That's how to get rid of a parenthesis

>different order of operations
Not certain that's the discussion right now.
It seems like brainlets don't understand there's an invisible multiplication sign between 2 and (

fucking retards

1.
For a programming board you think more than 5 got this right. Learn PEMDAS

You cant distribute the 2(1+2) without deviding first
6÷2(1+2)
P
6÷2(3)
D/M left to right
3(3)

These people seem to trust technology to the point where they let it interpret badly written operations for them

It's only as good as the idiot who wrote it, just like that formula. Is it 6÷(2*(1+2) or (6÷2)(1+2)? What they wrote is essentially meaningless. As it stands the correct answer is "syntax error, unsolvable". May as well read "6÷×2/2=+3+".

>Website can't into parentheses
I allowed scripts for this?

LOL tard

Yes I can. Deal with the parenthesis before anythign else

Oh and when you P you multiply into the parenthesis. Because it says 2 in front of it.

>it's technology's fault I can't properly solve this 4th grade math problem

The correct answer is that the expression is ambiguous.
If one interprets multiplication denoted by juxtaposition as having higher precedent then the answer is 1. If not then the answer is 9.

P doesnt mean use the distributive property to multiply.

Also go check a scientific calculator.

Who are you quoting?

Is how you get rid of a parenthesis

His mistake was so stupid but your response was somehow stupider.

Holy shit, go back to school.

Seething single digit IQ amerimutt

No it doesn't. Once you deal with the parentheses, divides and multiplication have the same precedence so you apply the right most argument first. Are you telling me their are people here who can't do middle school algebra?

If there is not a multiplication sign between 2 and ( what is there?
If there is a multiplication sign you must multiply 2 into the parenthesis when you get rid of it.

6/2(1+2) ≠ 6/2*(1+2)

No multiplication and division are applied towards the right dumb dumb .

And so we come to the core of the discussion

Yeah but you get rid of parentheses first. And standing next to it, that 2 affects it when we solve it.

Technology itself is mostly trustworthy, barring hardware failures or software bugs. You shouldn't rely on any one system tho as they all fail eventually.

It's people and the way they use technology I don't trust

BODMAS gives me 1. WolframAlpha gives me 9. I trust WolframAlpha more. Fuck my old school for teaching me this simple shit wrong.

It absolutely is. If not, we would have put something between 2 and (

its 1. people are supposed to determine the order, machine just does calculations.

1 is the correct answer.

Does it say 6/(2*(1+2)) or 6/2 * (1+2)?

This is purposefully written ambiguously

could you explain why? are you actually capable to explain it with math?

you're a retard, pemdas is short hand
without it would be parentheses everywhere, also nice reddit spacing faggot

it should be 0, it's 6 mod 2(1 + 2), not 6 / 2(1+2)

LOL says the one who failed math

BOMDAS isn't wrong, most physics publications abide by BOMDAS

>Ambiguous expression
If your answer is not 9, your IQ must be 9

Math isn't ambiguous

It's 9 and anyone who says otherwise is a retard or trolling.

Brainlet

>6 / 2 (1 + 2)
>6 / 2 (3)
>3 (3)
>9
????

Anyone who says nine is cringe. One is only true answer using pemdas.

>6/2(3)
>3(3)
Fucking retard

6/2(1+2) is treated as (6)/(2(3)) = 1

because 6 is complete and 2(1+2) is not and needs to be operated first. so it ends up being 6/6 = 1

See Then read the text of

>Please Excuse My Dope Ass Swag

I explained it in my post. Its basic precedence. Parenthesis must be dealt with first. It has higher precedence than multiplication or division. If two operators have the same precedence (multiplication and division) than the right most operator must be applied first. If you can't understand that than you can't do basic algebra it's that simple.

>it's another hurr my programming language says it's so therefore it is so and you're dumb if you say otherwise episode
Fucking Jow Forums man

I like that everyone who has posted 9, explains how they got it. Everyone else is just calling others a retard and not elaborating.

Parentheses must always be dealt with first brainlet. Why can't you guys grasp this?

this. Parentheses exists so we don't need context for the information. How are people not understanding this?

Are these guys serious?

No it doesn't, that doesn't prove it to be 9, only that it isn't 15

I'm not saying it "proves" it to be 9, it just seems that the ones answering 9 seem to be the only ones capable of explaining how they got the answer.

Are you retarded? 2(1+2) = 6
6/6 = 1
Literally operated the parentheses first

:)

/thread

How are you so sure of the fact that that guy thinks it's 9 in the first place?

x/y*z doesn't mean x/(y*z)
Writing x/y*z means writing x*y^{-1}*z, stop implying parenthesis on the denominator.

Or next you're going to tell me x*y^{-1}*z means x*y^({-1}*z)?

How the fuck did people figure out pemdas in the first place?

6/2(1+2)
6/(2+4)
6/6
1

It can also be 9

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

In reality, it's ambiguous and has no clearly defined answer because it's written improperly. If you represent the parentheses as x, it becomes 6/2x which makes the error much clearer.

With 6/2x it's impossible to know whether or not it's

6/2*x
Or
6/(2x)

Exactly the same case here. It's impossible to know whether or not it's

6/2*(1+2) (six divided by two multiplied by the result of one plus two)
Or
6/(2(1+2) (six divided by the product of two (1+3)s)

9 is technically more correct as that's what you'd get from a more literal interpretation, but otherwise it's correct both ways because it's written improperly.

He's just explaining how he got it. That's all. Same with the people saying 1.

i trust tech more than i trust myself

in all academic literature implied multiplication has a priority over division.

you sure don't understand shit in math
