What's the right answer?
>>
>>8901034
Are you literally retarded?
>>>/b/
>>
>>8901036
That's not an answer.
>>
>>8901034
What a stupid fucking overdone meme. Use a divisor bar. If you can't add more parentheses to clarify what you want solved. Of course, you already knew this and just wanted to get a kick out of shitposting. Fuck off.
>>
>>8901034
1
>>
well if it's
> 6 / 2 * (2+1)
>6 / 2 * 3
so
>3*3 = 9
or
>6/6 = 1
but i'm gonna go with the first one because of the way it's written (not under a divisor line)
>>
>>8901363
id depends on if you read it
> (6/2) * 3 = 9
or
> 6 / (2*3) = 1

how would you read it?
>>
>>8901034
>What's the right answer?
It's "1", can't you read?
>>
>>8901034
fuck off, this isn't science or math
>>
>>8901381
but it's not 6/(2*(2+3))
the answer is 9, isn't it?
>>
Both are right within the context of the particular calculator's semantics.
>>
>>8901064
>>8901371
/thread
now fuck the hell off back to >>>/b/ OP
>>
>>8901034
3(3)
9

>being so stupid you cant even read from left to right

PEMDAS

6/2(3)
6/6
1

the casio is right.
>>
>>8901613
>>8901345
>>8901371
>>8901381
>>8901391
>>8901535 clever
>>8901596 this
>>8901613

Order of operation come first when pemdas arrives at the one-liner "mult and div" where you have to do it from left to right regardless of how PEMDAS is spelled. So when you reach 6/2(3) you divide first and then multiply because order of operations is from left to right.

It's 9. Anyone who claims it's 1 is a brainlet.

>>8902588
brainlet confirmed

as this guy said >>8901535
the calculator undestands this [math]6\div2(2+1)[/math] to be equal to [math]6\over2(2+1)[/math]
and [math]6\div2\times(2+1)[/math] to be equal to [math]\frac{6}{2}\times(2+1)[/math]
>>
>>8901034
Is this what brainlets think math is? Any sane person would either use a fraction bar or add more (((parentheses))) to disambiguate.

It's fucking 9 you move left to right. Now can you stop posting it?
>>
>>8903237
pedmas is the most fundamental of all axioms dude
>>
The only people wrong are the 9 fags who think its related to PEDMAS.

Also I have seen Math teachers get this wrong.

The answer is clarify it better.
I was always taught to read x(z) not as x * z but as x amount of z's

After solving the brackets:

The equation ends up being read as "6 divided by two threes" which is 1.
The 9 answer comes from reading "6 divided by 2 multiplied by 3" and solving it left to right.

As far as I'm aware there is no correct way to solve it. PEDMAS is not math law.
>>
>>8901034
Your phone is right. If there are multiple divisions or multiplications you go from LEFT to RIGHT
>>
brackets indices divide multiply add subtract. its 9
>>
To all 9 fags that can't understand the beauty of the 1

xy รท xy

x = 1 y = 2

solve
