Math: 6÷2(1+2) = ? | |
Revguard User ID: 29097718  United States01/17/2013 07:28 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 6 / 2(1+2) = x clear parentheses by distributive property : 6 / (2 * 1) + (2 * 2) = x and clear parentheses by multiplication : 6 / 2 + 4 = x then order of operations : division first, then addition : 3 + 4 = x 7 = x You're welcome. This is wrong on many levels. Try to plug 7 into the original equation where X is. Check your work. |

That's the bottom line of all. Or are you thinking parentheses are there just for stupid design purpose thing or something? . Ducm, please stop. The answer is 9. Will always be 9. I can show you about 5 different ways to check the answer is 9. Edit: For the sake of eduction, The parenthesis are there for one reason, to tell you to do the 2+1 first. Nothing more, nothing less. Bingo, so why not just reporting this if your claim is so obvious: 6/2*3 = x - Just Sayin... look @ this: Thread: Upside down moon is really a alien mothership.

| Revguard User ID: 29097718 United States01/17/2013 07:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Wrong! OMFG. a/1a would allow a to be any number! 4/1 x 4 = 16 2/1 x 2 = 4 a/1a is not a math equation. There is no equal symbol. WTF are people really this stupid? Same thing for 6/2a. A could be anything. 6/2 x 4 = 12 6/2 X 1 = 3 6/2 x 10 = 30 |

The answer is 9. Plug it into any good scientific or engineering calculator and it will show you the answer has always been, and always will be 9. |
| Revguard User ID: 29097718 United States01/17/2013 07:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Here is your distributive property in action.... 6 ÷ 2(2+1)= 3(2+1)= 6+3= 9...

This is where you people are confusing yourselves. Go back a few pages. No, he is trolling this thread. He knows his answer is wrong. He knows he cant prove his answer right. He is just trolling, are incredibly stupid. I give him the benefit and say he is trolling. |
