Maths question(difficult)

9.

 

 

using bodmas rule..

 

x or / will supercede + & - .

 

so 6 / 2(1+2) = left divide 1st..

 

3 ( 1+2) = 9. my 2 cents..

 

6/ 2(1+2)

6/2(3)

3(3)

=9

 

u r correct but u forgot to do bracket first. Minus 1 mark for missing step.

The more I see, the more confuse....

 

If "X" and "/" would come 1st, then shouldn't 2(1+2) would need to work out before 6/ take place?

 

Given 1+2 is in a bracket, so:

 

6/2 (1+2) = 6/2 (3)= 6/6 = 1?

 

My initial 1st answer was 9, but subsequent one seems to be 1....

 

Confuse....

u may be right.. 1 seems to be the right answer..

 

 

amazing bodmas still rocks after 20+ yrs.. haha

The question is not phrased like this if I recall correctly(too lazy to click the back button:p)

it is 6 divide by 2 (1+2).

so may the TS can clarify whether the statement is indeed 6/2(1+2), or wld it rather be a fraction, with 6 as the numerator and 2 (1+2) as the denominator.

if it's the former,answer will be 9 while the latter,1:)

hopefully I'm not wrong!
