what it comes down to is that some people say that the expression is the same as (6 ÷ 2) * (1+2) and some people say that it means 6 ÷ (2 * (1+2))
BUT WHICH ONE IS CORRECT????
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31519086 It means 6 ÷ (2 * (1+2)) This is proven with Distribution Property. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32057798 (6 ÷ 2) * (1+2) uses the Distributive Property as well. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31519086 Distribution is the reverse of factoring. When the fuck did you ever see 6÷2 factored from a number?? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32057798 errr what? didn't you previously reply "Sure does, only if the original equation had parentheses around the (6÷2) then you would be all set." did you change your mind? does (6 ÷ 2) * (1+2) use the Distributive Property or not?
