multiplication and division are done at the same time left to right so the proposed note is factually incorrect and the answer is 9 NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(3-0-6) Author

NNN, multiplication and division are on the same level therefore supposed to be done from left to right: 6/2*(1+2) 6/2*3 3*3 9 NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(4-0-6) Author

The problem here is the ambiguity of the expression, not PEMDAS itself. It is written such that those that read it literally will go "first /, and then * by ()", and others will assume "multiplication without the symbol implies everything is one grouped term, so * before /".

The answer is 1, because the 2(1 + 2) term includes implied multiplication, which is performed before non-implied multiplication and division. This could also be written as 6 ÷ [2 × (1 + 2)]. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(27-0-32) Author

The post is factually correct since according to PEMDAS - both multiplication AND division are on the same level - meaning which ever one comes first is done then. So dividing by 2 is done before multiplying by 3. The same rule is in effect with addition and subtraction. NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(2-0-2) Author

NNN. Both 1 and 9 are correct, it depends on the interpretation you have of it. It's purposefully written in an ambiguous way for interaction baiting, but nothing worth putting on a note. Y'all have comment sections for that. NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(7-1-12) Author

NNN. In math there is no such thing as two different answers. 2+2=4. It’s not 2+2=4 but sometimes on Friday it equals 6. Yes there might be different interpretations of the equation, but there is it only one correct answer CURRENTLY_RATED_NOT_HELPFUL(2-0-5) Author

Note not needed. While implicit multiplication would be a valid action in any other situation, this scenario is about PEMDAS specifically, which does not include implicit multiplication. As such, the answer would be 9 under PEMDAS. NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(0-0-3) Author

It cannot be one as 6÷2(1+2) is 6÷2(3) which can be written as 6÷2×3. And since multiplication and division have equal value it goes left to right. So 6÷2×3 is 3×3 which is 9. [Link][Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(3-0-3) Author

Both 1 and 9 are correct. This problem is written in an ambiguous fashion. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(0-0-0) Author
