Where are the variables? However if this was 6/2(1+2x) then you could use the FOIL method easily enough. We are only dealing with the simple order of operations here. [/quote] true. There are unsolved math and physics problems out there. So i dont know if the answer is one or nine. I just wanted the fruit and vegetables...lol. Nine just makes more sense but i am sure the computer programmers are laughing at this thread so basic for so many pages. [/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 .
