You silly fillys, i shall present your tiny human brains the correct answer:
Some stupid people might argue that you can write it with a fractionbar(or whatever bruchstrich means in english), but they forgetz the x(2+1) part doesnt belong under the fraction bar, also for all people that still dont understand it, i suggest visiting a Math Class. But writing Fractionbar instead of / is still right.

Brackets first, and then just from left to right. How hard can it be...

To prove it 100 % :

multiplication and division are at the same rank
When you have a bunch of operations of the same rank, you just operate from left to right.
So the correct answer is 9.

6/2(1+2) needs to be written out clearer...
Could be:
6/(2(1+2)) = 6/(2(3)) = 1
In this case, you will of course do the parenthesis first then multiply then divide the whole thing.
Or:
(6/2)(1+2) = (3)(3) = 9
Left to right, you'll do division first then multiply whatever is in the parenthesis.

You need to log in before commenting.
You can't set it up like that. You need to set up an actual fraction to have it make any sense.
It's quite obvious, that; in a sense, both answers are correct, only they follow two different ways of calculating it. Neither way is incorrect, and therefore both ways are correct, because of the fact that you can't know which way is the correct way, from the way that equation is set up.
If you want to make it 100 % certain it is 9, then you would have to use the actual division sign, in instead of the slash. The slash implicates a fraction, so therefore, that actually means that the answer is 1, because the fraction-sign is used instead of the division sign.
I'm rambling, but I'm gonna have to say 1, because the slash implicates a fraction, and the "times" between 2 and the paranthesis connects them, and are thus both under the fractionbar.
Therefore the calculation is:
(6)/(2*(2+1)) = 1
Yea, but no one uses slash as a fraction :P
It pretty much always means division.
