fuck off it's clearly -1

1

6/6

it's 7

1

1. Eat muh dick faget

9 obviously.

the answer is clearly 2 because there is more 2 than any other number

9 is right

trips confirm

1

6/2(2+1)
6/2(3)
6/6
1

four thirds

the answer is fuck you cunt faggot XD

you faggots can't even solve this

the sum of all the numbers 2^(-n) from n = 1 to infinity

Can somebody actually explain how to do this?

I'm at a loss.

No. Parenthesis first, you are right.

But then Division/Multiplication is applied from left to right.

Then Addition/Subtraction from left to right (none here)

6 / 2 * (2 + 1)
6 / 2 * 3
3 * 3
9

No, you fucking uneducated autist. You divide 6 with 2, and use the distributive property, giving 6 + 2. It's clearly fucking 8, retard.

Niner

PEMDAS you cunts

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

cunts

your mom's a cunt lol xDDDDDDDDDDDDd

Someone's really mad. You seem to be a little bit autistic based on the fit you just had. Not to mention your oh so excellent math skills. How about a puzzle and some sonic the hedgehog?

Well, if you want to use PEMDAS
Multiplication BEFORE division
6 / 2 * (3)
6 / 6
1

9; it's in fact the same as (6/2)(2+1)

How have I fallen yet again for the bait

No. It's PEMDAS as in P, E, M/D, A/S.

How do people keep getting 1 it's 9

I'm not fucking angry. You're fucking angry, you dumb faggot. I bet you can't even get any pussy with the lack of education you have. You didn't even try to fight my argument back with real math skills. Go eat a dick.

this is shit bait and you are a shit person

Exactly my point.

M/D

Nice try.

Thats not how it works...

The answer is 9

I can tell you're getting grumpy. Go to bed, you've got school tomorrow.

multiplication and division aren't distinguished as one having priority over the other. it's whichever's leftmost.

you will find nothing saying otherwise.

What are the exponents in the equation anyway? Some people think it's just 6/2(2+1) while others think it's (6/2)(2+1). Which is it?

They're the same, faggot

fuck you fuck YOU!!! KILL YOURSELF!

Agree to disagree.

The problem is poorly written anyway.

Not sure if horrendously shit tier new fag or horrendously shit tier troll pretending to be newfag. Either way, you're aren't triggering me. I'm sat here laughing at how much of a fool you are.

9

No it isn't, its written perfectly fine, this isn't lit where things are left up to interpretation, there is a certain way to do things

They're equivalent.

6/2*(2+1) = 6/2(2+1) = (6/2)(2+1) = ((6)/(2))((2)+(1)) = (((6)/(2))((2)+(1)))

You changed the format when you added the multiply symbol
6/2(2+1)=1
6/2*(2+1)=9

To further clarify

Six divided by two, (two plus one)'s

Not the same as

Six halves times (two + one)

Though this confusion is why it would be more appropriate to use a vertical format

I'm siding with 9 here. The problem is expressed in an odd way. Usually division is expressed with รท rather than /. This confuses the denominator of the fraction. I think it's 6 halves though, which leads to 9 as the answer.

in english please?

(1+1)(1+1) === (1+1) * (1+1)

Not sure what you're getting at with the lit remark. If this question was properly written this wouldn't even be a topic.

I don't see us reaching an agreement, so again, agree to disagree.

6/2*(2+1) => Six divided by two times two plus one.

6/2(2+1) => Siv divided by two times two plus one.

Both give 9, the * symbol is implied when using parentheses, you dumb fuck

The * symbol implies multiplication.

The parenthesis implies a coefficient relationship, which, yes, in *most* situations can be treated the same.

...

Get an education. You fucks

Thank you

Even In your shitty pemdas you multiply first you twat

Brackets
Exponents
Division
Multiplication
Addition
Subtraction

see

1...

kill yourself

And multiplication comes before division you retard

6/2(2+1)
6/2*3
6/6=1

Anyone who gets anything else is a massive retard.

JESUS how long has it been since you've been to school, in the last 4 characters of PEMDAS the order doesnt matter in pairs. Meaning that you can solve it in the order given

I hate to break it to you, but what you learn in 2nd grade math class is not universal.

This question is written ambiguously, thus both 9 and 1 are valid answers, depending on the method used.

The mistakes do not lie in the solutions, but rather the problem itself.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

Is it 1? Or is it infinitely close to 1?

No, the only valid solution is 9.

I can't believe we are STILL having this argument. People who can't accept how equations work, you are just like Christians trying to prove God.

> "1/2x equals 1/(2x), not (1/2)x"
Directly from the page you linked.

first you do parenthesis, (2+1)=3
Then you multiply 6/2(3)=18/2
18/2=9
Its a fraction, you cant multiply the 3 by the 2 if its not in a parenthesis.
Uneducated americans. Meh.

>using Wikipedia as a source of reference

you're all a bunch of dumbass nigger faggots. it didnt matter in grade school, it doesn't matter now. go spend your time solving real problems.

Still uses the bullshit pemdas from elementary school he 2 is written as a coefficient to the (2+1)

Which should be read as (2*(2+1)) you fuck twit you can't just pull them apart because you dropped out of highschool

autist kys

"However, in some of the academic literature"
Which OP's question is clearly not part of.
If you're gonna quote, quote all the relevant parts.

this

the problem itself is not clear enough.
it fails to distinguish between

6/(2(2+1))=1
and
6/2(2+1)=9

actually in just goes in order after Parenthesis and Exponent. Multiplication or Division whichever comes first same with Add or Subtract.
PEMDAS so the person you tried to belittle is actually smarter then you are -.- no im not same person just saw your bad math while scrolling through /b

Is that better?

wolframalpha.com/input/?i=6/2(1+2)

nigger

The answer is 9.

I have a bachelors in Chemical Engineering. I know how math works.

>than*
Your argument is invalid.

cuckold shitlib faggot nigger

Lol it's because their shitty teachers didnt teach them how to understand coefficients

Oh, my apologies for paying attention to academic literature.

I take it your elementary school math education makes you an expert who knows better?

>This mad at being mad at math

6/2(2+1)
6/2*3
6/6
1

This is the only valid answer

2+1=3
6/2=3
3x3=9

>this retarded

Look at all the retard Trump supporters struggle with math

look at hillary clinton lose

I bet they think math supports abortions up to birth

You have the right answer, but your work is wrong.

6/2(2+1)
6/2(3)
6/6
1

Working from 6/2*3 you get:
6/2*3
3*3
9

Careful!

1

P.E.M.D.A.S BITCHES!!!

...

The same fucking thing you pedant.

Just like .999 repeating is 1, so is that.

everyone in this thread should kill themselves immediately

That depends whether you consider (2+1) to be multiplied by 6 or by 2. There's a reason why this divide sign is completely useless, it it was a fraction then anyone in this thread could come up with the correct answer.

We accept them as the same so that math does not break down, but in actuality there is a difference.

Not true.

.999 repeating is not the same as 1, but it is mathematically equivalent to 1.

i'll show yo wat up
6 /2(2+1)
6/2(3)
prenthesis first so you bultiply 6 by 3
6*3/2
alderba so do madsap
devison go
6 * 1.5
9 easy peasy

The (2+1) is a coefficient to the 2. This is not ambiguous.

Its 9
Go put it in a calculator

6/2(2+1)=
6/2(3)=
6/2*3=
6*2^(-1)*3=
9

Look it's fucking simple

6/2(2+1)

First distribute the coefficient

6/(4+2)

Then add the inside of the parenthesis

6/6

Then solve

6/6 =1

yo no distribue unless it's an aldebreic equaton

you need to go back..

to school

>Not true
>Goes into semantics

For engineers, they are the same

IE in the real world, they are the same. Just like pure mathematicians preach about 1/0 being impossible but its functionally infinity.
