For the actual solving of this problem gotta know:
PEMDAS
Parentheses - Perform Operation Inside Parentheses Exponent- N/A here Multiplication/Division - From Left to Right; So where 2(3) does = 6; you have to divide first before multiplying. The way you did it actually has a historical precedent that before 1917 would have been correct (watch here, you need sound for the end, as he explains why):
Addition/Subtraction - N/A as this was done in the parentheses
Math is a wonderful thing:
Substitute X for (2+1) and Y as the unknown
6/2X=Y
Remove 2X from the left side by multiplying both sides by 2X
6= 2XY
Divide both sides by 2
3=XY
Replace 2+1 for X
3=(2+1)*Y
Solve for Parenthesis
3=3Y
Divide both sides by 3
1=Y
Both are wrong haha

Nice meme
Lol that took me 5 minutes to understand
Really funny.
Can you also please go and check out my page

lol, I think i'd have to try this out myself
By my phone I can't do this ( )
Like seriously 😵😵
no math please jaja
I am not good at math 😂
Both aren't right
Left one is worthy to make calculations for asgard.
Hmm
yeah... you should. lol
I like the left answer the most lol.
:D
The right one is right.....
()'s first so 3*2/6
*,/,+ and the - ='s is the way it goes.
Either way the answer is 1.
Actually, I am pretty sure the left one is correct:
The problem here is the programming in the Calculator. Classic vs Math Print mode

Parentheses - Perform Operation Inside Parentheses
Exponent- N/A here
Multiplication/Division - From Left to Right; So where 2(3) does = 6; you have to divide first before multiplying. The way you did it actually has a historical precedent that before 1917 would have been correct (watch here, you need sound for the end, as he explains why):

So steps:
9 is the correct answer!

Next talk about lies, damn lies and statistics.
You know it
