It's 9.

>> No.32550816

I'm going to nip this in the bud right now.
BEDMAS, BODMAS, PEMDAS, PEDMAS, whatever you use, they are all the same. There is no difference in the order of operations between them. It is:
Brackets (aka Parenthesis)
Exponent (aka Order)
Multiplication and Division in order left to right
Addition and Substraction in order left to right.

So in 6/2 (1+2) you do what's inside the brackets(parenthesis) first
It becomes 6/2(3)
Then as division and multiplication are done at the same time in the order they are encountered left to right in the equation it is 6 divided by 2, equalling 3, then multiplied by what is in the brackets (parenthesis). 3 x 3 is 9.
The answer is 9

This is actually a fairly simple problem. It’s basic middle school math, the tricky part is that the notation is unclear but if you go through it step by step it’s easy.

>Start
6/2(1+2)

>Step 1
Parentheses first, use PEMDAS
6/(2) x 2/(1)

>Step 2
Cross multiply, we are done with the parentheses so we move right
6/2 x 2 x (2+1)/2

>Step 3
We’re done with parentheses and multiplication from PEMDAS so we move to division. This is the tricky part.
3 x 2/1 x 2/2

>Step 4
Just simplify now, this is easy
3 x 2 x 1

>Step 5
Finish multiplying and we’re done
3 x 2 x 1 = 6

(1+2) takes precedence as it's the first step in PEMDAS. However, anything that's solved within the parentheses gets preferential treatment in multiplication as the parentheses remains until it has been multiplied.

So ideally, it's 6 / 2(3) and as 2(3) still has a parentheses, that takes precedence and you get 6 / 6 which equals to 1.

How come Europoors were never taught how to solve problems without parentheses? Why do they refuse to solve problems without parentheses? Just do left to right nigga, it's not that hard. It's literally ONE EXTRA RULE in math where there are already hundreds I'm sure you've already memorized.

None of your pseudo intellectual talk matters here. The problem is entirely based on math.

6/2(1+2)
Inside the parentheses first
6/2(3)
Multiplication takes precedent because there are brackets
6/(6)
Divide
1

The answer is one brainlet

PEMDAS, fool.

You add the numbers inside of the parentheses first. The you have 6/2(3) which is the same as 6/2*3. And the rule is that multiplication and division have equal precedence and you go from left to right, so you do 6/2 first, which leaves you with 3*3. Which is 9.

So, I looked into it. Apparently the math problem went viral back in 2016. Apparently by modern standards, the answer is 9. However, historically, we used to figure out these math problems in a different way. If you were to do things like they used to do it, the answer would be 1.
So everyone is right based on what method they used. Mainly because I said 1.

6 is objectively the right answer. In shorthand the expression is 6/2 (1+2), once you expand that you get (6/(2))2((1+2), you cancel out the twos and you’re left with (6(1) + 2(6)/(2))/2 which equals 6(1) which is of course 6. Again the notation is poor which is why you are getting the wrong answers, once you write the whole thing out anyone who understands basic arithmetic knows the answer is 6

Yes it does. If the majority did things our way to figure things out, that would be the accepted method.

the answer doesnt actually matter because any actual important equation will not use the gay divide sign and will just put things on top or on the bottom and also because there isnt even any context around the question.

>An expression like 1/2x is interpreted as 1/(2x) by TI-82, as well as many modern Casio calculators,[22] but as (1/2)x by TI-83 and every other TI calculator released since 1996,[23] as well as by all Hewlett-Packard calculators with algebraic notation. While the first interpretation may be expected by some users due to the nature of implied multiplication, the latter is more in line with the rule that multiplication and division are of equal precedence.

The elite have had computers for a while. They're just letting us plebs leverage a small fraction of the computing power they posses.
The latest AMD threadripper 9001x processor with 24 6nm cores? that's a grain of sand compared to that they have in the white house basement.
You're a fool if you don't think they had computers during the revolution and were crunching numbers to make tactical decisions.
