This is for you retards who couldn't answer it correctly.

Expression : 6 ÷ 2(1 + 2)

Step 1: Evaluate parentheses.
> 1 + 2 = 3
So the expression becomes: 6 ÷ 2(3)

Step 2: Interpret the expression.
This is where ambiguity can occur. But according to the standard order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):
> Parentheses
> Exponents
> MD (Multiplication and Division, left to right)
> AS (Addition and Subtraction, left to right)
So we now treat it as:
> 6 ÷ 2 × 3

Step 3: Left to right — Division and Multiplication
First: 6 ÷ 2 = 3
Then: 3 × 3 = 9

THE ANSWER IS 9, IDIOTS!!!!

I'll write the post which will explain the misinterpretation that will lead it to 1, which is the incorrect answer.

Misinterpretation (leads to 1):

Some people read this as:

> 6 ÷ [2(3)]

Which means:

> 6 ÷ 6 = 1

They mentally treat 2(3) as a single grouped unit, almost like it's still in parentheses:

> “Do the multiplication in the denominator first, then divide.”

This grouping is not technically correct unless it’s explicitly written with parentheses like:

> 6 ÷ (2 × 3)
then yes, you’d get 1.

Answer is nine.
