You do what's in the brackets first. When it's outside like that it's treated as multiplication.

This went better than expected. It got moved to ib, and shitstorm still continued. Weew
Well, nobody is calling anybody fucking idiots for thinking it's 9 or 1, so, not a huge shitstorm yet :3

I thought I left this shit behind at the end of 10th grade. I barely passed the math section of CAHSEE by 5 points.

I don't remember my CAHSEE. We were the test group before it was mandatory. I graduated early though.

Yeah, but since it's 6/2(1+2) Surely it is actually 6/2x(1+2) therefore, you only do (1+2) which is (3) and then 6/2 first, since it's multiplication and division left to right, making 3x(3) = 9. yeah?
