You should read your own links, specifically this part:

it makes no di erence whatsoever in what order the additions or multiplications are carried out.
 Quoting: your own link


6/2(1+2) = 6 x 0.5 x 3 = 9

only a fool argues anything other than 9.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32762094


That is really funny. Did you not see that I quoted that exact passage?

Next time you want to re-write it, do it properly:
6 * 2^-1 * (2+1)^-1
Why?
6 ÷ 2n = 6 * (2n)^-1 = 6 * 2^-1 * n^-1; where n = 2+1
