    If that first part is a fraction (6/2) then the answer is 9. If the / symbol is meaning divide 2(1+2) by 6 then the answer is 1. So I guess it depends on the intentions of whoever wrote the problem. They should have just made it look like a normal fraction with a horizontal line but I can't figure out how to do that with my keyboard.

    6*divided by*2(1+2) = 9

    Dude, you read multiplication/division and addition/subtraction in the order they appear in the equation (left to right) after you perform the equations in parenthesis and the exponents. :p

    that's what im saying. WTF is the real answer? isn't it 1? you treat problems like this like it's a 6 on top and the rest on bottom. so def 1 right? . . . i know why the calc said that though, he would need to put in parentheses.
