the 6/2 would need distributed into the (2+1) if you want to do distribution.
As seen on every math website I have found.
Quoting: Forgotten Those websites are wrong, OR the (6/2) was in parentheses. Any fraction using the '/', used as a coefficient, MUST be in parentheses, or else, the entire bottom becomes the denominator. I proved this with the identity law, and that isn't good enough, here is an online algebra lesson: [ link to cstl.syr.edu] [ link to imageshack.us] [ link to img255.imageshack.us] If someone can show me 1 math website that comes up with 1 I will agree. Even though I can show 10+ websites with 9. I just need 1. One website. Out of MILLIONS OF WEBSITES 1 must be able to work the problem and come up with 1. At least 1 website is doing it the "correct way". Some website must have 1 as an answer. Right?
