Question

Omg i think the anwser is 9 but
what is 6/2(1+2)=?

Answer 1

1 because 6/6 is 1.

Answer 2

6/2(1+2)=0 6/2(3)=0 6/6=0 The answer is 1

Answer 3

Dont YOU USe P.E.M.D.A.S i thought u do 1+2 then 6/2 then times 3 and 3 wich equals nine

Answer 4

If you are using PEMDAS it would be (1+2)=3
them multiplication so 3x2= 6
then division which is 6/6=1

Answer 5

PEMDAS
6/2(1+2)
6/2(3)
6/6
1
you multiply before you divide

Answer 6

left to right

Answer 7

the answer is 1

Answer 8

9

Answer 9

\[6/2(1+2)=6\times\frac{1}{2}\times(1+2)\]

Answer 10

It's 9, wrongy. Everyone above me is wrong, except Zarkon.

Answer 11

No because the "/" means division.

Answer 12

So how would you do it?

Answer 13

its the equivalent of saying \[6\div(2(1+2))\]

Answer 14

6/2(1+2) can be written as: \[\large \large \frac{ 6 }{ 2 } (1+2)\] Correct so far?

Answer 15

No. Following PEMDAS, you would first add 1 and 2 together to get 3. Then you would multiply 3 by 2 and get six. finally, you would divide 6 by 6 and get 1. Make sense?

Answer 16

The first step is right. You must do parenthesis first. So 1 + 2 is 3. Next, you have division or multiplication, right?

Answer 17

you do multiplication first. you can remember that by P-E-Multiplication-division-A-S

Answer 18

I guess you don't know what PEMDAS means.

Answer 19

PEMDAS =
Parenthesis
Exponent
Multiplication/Division
Division/Multiplication
Addition/Subtraction
Subtraction/Addition.

Answer 20

multiplication and division is done from left to right

Answer 21

What Zarkon said.

Answer 23

If division was first then is would be spelled PEDMAS

Answer 24

PEMDAS is just a way to help you...it does not give the full picture

Answer 25

...

Answer 26

What Zarkon said. Anyway, google PEMDAS. Everything will say Multiplication or division. (Whichever comes first from left to right)

Answer 33

So it could go either way depending on where the parenthesis are?

Answer 34

\[\large \large \frac{ 6 }{ 2(1+2) } \neq \frac{ 6 }{ 2 } (1+2)\]

Answer 35

\[6/2(1+2)=6\div 2(1+2)=6\frac{1}{2}(1+2)\]

it will always be 9

Answer 36

Another way of writing 6/2 (1+2) is: \[\large \large \frac{ 6 (1+2)}{ 2 } \ \] Does it make sense?

Answer 37

Ugh I feel bad that I gave her that answer then :(

Answer 38

she will live :)
