Math: 6÷2(1+2) = ?

You almost had it. After parenth you are supposed to move left to right.

You solved 2*3 first, but instead you should have done 6/2 first.

Then you would have been left with 3(3) which is 9.

1

Again, not going left to right after solving paranth.

Fuck your not even American your fucking from Israel no wonder Americans are stupid cause Israel owns the US education system.

no!

you dont just leave (3) if youre left with (3) or any other number you are supposed to finish it! and then do left to right

you are not supposed to go left to right before you get rid of (3) you dont just leave it as it is after (1+2)

LMFAO !! You can;t use distribution on numbers??? How the hell do you think they teach metal math???

Who needs to go back to school ?? That is really laughable...

Because you have to ELIMINATE parentheses first, as he has clearly done properly:

6÷2(3) = 6÷2(3+0) = 6÷[2(3) + 2(0)] = 1

OH FUCK CANADIANS ARE MORONS AS WELL. Where were you educated in the US ?


6÷2(1+2) = ?

OK Brackets first

whats (1+2)

HOPE YOU CAN FUCKING WORK THAT OUT RETARD. IT'S 3

ok so now we have

6÷2(3) = ?

whats 6÷2

HOPE YOU CAN FUCKING WORK THAT OUT RETARD. IT'S 3

so now you have

3(3) = ?

whats 3 * 3

HOPE YOU CAN FUCKING WORK THAT OUT RETARD. IT'S 9


so 6÷2(1+2) = 9

HOW CAN I BE SURE. I ASKED A FUCKING 9 year old.

moron! you cant leave 6÷2(3) as it is! you have to elimenate the 3. you cant stop at (3) and go left to right.

Again try google. Here is the answer in google 1 box.

Try a scientific calculator

Try a computer

Try your fingers

actually here is a good video

just posted a comment on that vid saying hes a dumbass!

Because you are using a 9 yr old's math skills.
I told you how to get the answer. Distribute the 2 into the parentheses as all the references say to do. If you want to ignore proper procedures, then you may remain ignorant and a half-wit at your own doing. Have fun with that.

that video sucks balls too. At least there are good comments that shows you how to do it right. He also uses elementary school math skills to solve it. Understandable if that is all you know.

Can someone with half a brain try and disprove the following:

6 ÷ 6 = 1
6 ÷ (4+2) = 1
6 ÷ 2(2+1) = 1

Do they teach factoring anymore? I know they stopped preaching that children have to memorize times tables... I guess they started omitting other math basics in schools too. I guess it really isn;t your fault you get 9. However, it IS your fault if you don't want to learn why it is 1.

1

PEMDAS answer is 1

I give up. I could get a Harvard Professor or even Steven Hawkings to explain this and you idiots would still thing it is 1

Some people are just to stupid. Obviously it is pointless trying to explain it to you. If you can't work out that this is 6 ÷ 0.666666666666 and not 6 / 6 then your better off believing the 911 and Sandy Hook story then questioning it cause there is no telling what you would do when you found out the real answer.

Wrong. Multiply before divide
PEMDAS Parenthesis Exponents Multiply Divide Add Subtract
2(1+2) before divide

lol Dude. The answer is 1. Basic Mathematical principles.

PEMDAS IS WRONG

Agree. Current maths procedure for working this out follows P.E.M.D.A.S. - so it is (1)

How do we come to a concensus? What "expert" would be honored by both sides?

How about we take a vote?


Me? no math degree. I got an A in college algebra, and averaged 3.5 in 8 hours of college chemistry which is like a workshop for algebra. So..11 university hours of algebra work with nearly 4.0 and I say it's ONE.

if you really must use PEMDAS its
(P) Do this first
(E)Do this next
(MD) Do these left to right
(AS) Do these left to right

so its 9

I would love to have a harvard professor explain his response. He would have much more principles and reasoning than any of you people who say "Its 9 you morons".

Your logic, and spelling is aweful. Why would you bring 911 and Sandy Hook into an argument about maths? And why are you so upset about an equation? Chill dude...

Why don't you try eliminating parentheses first, as order of operations says you should

I did


6÷2*3=

Now do left from right. If you really don't understand simple mathematics and have to depend on rules designed for little school kids who can't basic grasp concept please use BIDMAS instead of PEMDAS


BIDMAS (brackets, indices, division, then multiplication, addition, subtraction)

brackets 6/2(3)

division 3(3)

multiplication 9

The answer is 1.
