pemdas is for heathens

9 is the only correct answer if you have more than one braincel, if it was 1 then it would need to be written as 6/(2(2+1)). writing × before parenthesis or not doesn't matter, we assume the × is there regardless and it has no impact on the order of equations.

THANK YOU!

Using an academic style guide and an obelus at the same time is laugh-worthy. This is why STEM kids need the Humanities, so you understand situation and syntax.

6/2(1+2) 6*(1/2)(1+2) 6*(1/2)(3) 6*1.5 Yeah im an idiot i think

faggot spotted

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

You're over thinking and making assumptions about the equation given. Occams razor will lead you towards a layman's perspective thus using coming to the conclusion that the answer is 9. It isn't a math problem it's a philosophical problem.

It’s still PEMDAS it’s just that 2(1+2) means 2x(1+2) and always has meant that.

Define "grouped multiplication".
