Math: 6÷2(1+2) = ?
Anonymous Coward User ID: 942369 United States 05/27/2012 11:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation	Re: Math: 6÷2(1+2) = ? ... 2 288 hay that is on another forum as a problem! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12805141 Yes I admit I got lazy and pulled their numbers to word my problem. Unfortunately no one on that forum thought to make it a word problem. And oddly enough a physics forum is split 50/50 as to the 2 or 288 which is the same as our 1 or 9 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 16720242 1/2 a chicken each 24 divided by 48 Quoting: NightWisp correct so how did you get 9 for the OP? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 16720242 6 divided by 2 =3 x 1+2 + 3 so 3 x 3 =9 oh I see... 6 / 2(3) = 6 /6 = 1 my bad.

Quoting: Patrick Bateman Algebraically, 2(9+3) is an inseparable quantity. That's to say that the distributive property of multiplication would make it so (29 + 23) which = 24.

I will substitute variables into the brackets so it becomes 6/2(x+y) simplifying the equation it becomes 6/(2x+2y) divide numerator and denominator by 2 yields 3/(x+y) put your values in for x and y yields 3/(1+2) 3/3 = 1 Where is my chicken dinner please? I'd rather die on my feet than "live" on my knees.

In the order of operations, multiplication does NOT come before division. Which ever one comes first going from left to right is the problem you solve first. Therefore the answer is 9. This is simple fucking math people.

Patrick will sleep well with the knowledge that so many people are not at his level. Do any of you math majors know the answer to: What is the square root of 4? Just checking some basics.
