Question

What is 6/2(1+2)=?

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember PEMDAS???

"parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction"

you would first solve the addition inside of the parentheses (1 + 2 = 3), and from there finish the equation as it's written from left to right.

Answer 2

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to solve inside the parentheses because of PEMDAS or GEMDAS, whichever you know. When we add 1+2 we get 3 inside the parentheses and it looks like this: 6/2(3).

Then, we have to divide 6 by 2 before we do anything else. When we divide 6/2, we get 3 and it will look like this: 3(3).

Finally, we have to multiply 3 by 3 because when something is in parentheses, you have to multiply it by the number right before it (next to it). Once we multiply 3*3, we will get our answer of 9.
