[quote:Anonymous Coward 32057798:MV8xNDczMDcwXzM1NTkxMTg4XzkxNjZDRjBE] [quote:Anonymous Coward 30235756:MV8xNDczMDcwXzM1NTkwOTk1XzQwNjNCNDJD] Multiple people with PHD's in Mathematics say 9. I get your music teach said 1 but hey I pay my kids music teacher $20 an hour and the folks with the PHD in math get $200 an hour Just saying oh and the answer is 9 [/quote] Which people? Do they ALL say 9 ? No one with a PhD say it is 1? I have math book references that are written by 2 guys with PhDs in mathematics, and they say 1/2n = 1/(2n). In that case then, 6/2a where a = 2+1 = 1. [/quote]

Alright, there's a lot of self-proclaimed experts around these parts. Let's see how your logic holds up against some basic mathematics.
6÷2(1+2) = ?
I'll give two hints. This is
NOT
a trick question, and there is only
1
correct answer.
All tools used for computation are fair game.
(Yes, I saw this somewhere else and decided to post it here.)
Best of luck to all you geniuses .
