Your school taught you to do division and multiplication before parentheses? You probably aren't remembering correctly

95% of BGOL does not know that the order of operations exist let alone what the order is. This has been demonstrated in countless math threads.

No they taught us to do what's inside the parentheses first, then what's outside the parentheses next.

So you have 2+1 inside the parentheses which is 3
6 divided by 2 outside the parentheses which is 3
Then 3 (3) which is 9

But since the calculators can't agree I don't know whats right

Instead of "what's inside the parentheses first" complete the parentheses first. (2+1) = (3)2=6 ÷ 6 = 1. It's not what's inside the parentheses first, it's work the parentheses first until they are complete/gone.

Fucking casio calculator

 

[Rudey]

Who writes math problems like that to begin with?

 

[thismybgolname]

Every scientific calculator I've plugged this into but one has given the answer as 9.
