If you study any course related to computer science you would understand.
You know in secondary school the best and only way of solving questions like that was with bodmas, but after I gained admission to study computer science every thing became different and clear on how most of the electronic gadgets are operating and functioning, including calculations.
If you are given a question like that as a computer science student you must go with the Android version of the calculation while in secondary school you must go with the casio version.

Very good, tell them oh. The problem is that PEMDAS and BODMAS confuses people and makes them forget that Multiplication and division have the same precedence, number two our maths teachers and their coconut heads fooled us into believing that O is Of when it is order. This is just as annoying as the endian problem.

I wish I could buy u beer.

Thank you bro... I really appreciate, but i don't take beer.

LadySarah:
The answer is 1.
Take care of bracket. 2plus 1 equals 3.nect multiplication 3times 2 equals 6 then divide by 6 equals 1.
2+1*2 /6

MrShape,come and pay me for this answer

Lol.
I am very busy this days.
I saw the thread of different answer from two calculators and I laugh it seems no one was able to determine why.
In the coming weeks when I am less busy j will explain

Martinez39s:
JESUS! How can an engineer and Physics teacher say this nonsense. According to principles of basic arithmetic, that question has one and only one answer which is 9. Getting 1 is due to ignorance and a wrong application of arithmetic.

I can see you're really olodo. U know nothing about calculation. It's a pity

1+5(2x + 3)=5
Find x
Let see if you're intelligent

1 + 5(2x + 3) = 5

You're a very big Mumu brother.
Why did you multiply the 5 to open d bracket & not use d 2 to open d bracket for 2+1
Get sense bro
If u want to tackle me in mathematics, let get started

Your ignorance is a confident one. You gave me an algebraic expression in one variable to solve and you want to compare it to solving a simple arithmetic problem?

Let me school you. When given the problem 6 ÷ 2(2 + 1), the first thing to do is evaluate what's in the grouping symbol(s) (in this case, a bracket) for inward to outward. Finally you solve the divisions and multiplications as they occur from left to right. The answer to the question is 9.

Because of ignorant fools like you, I will create a topic explaining the principles of arithmetic operations. Waste of school fees, waste of certificate. OLODO RABATA.

If d answer is 6/2x(2+1) den d answer is sure to be 9, but if it's 6/2(2+1) den it's 1.
Go ask ur mathematics teacher if he's not a quack one

I know by d time u know d correct answer you'll feel ashame to post it here that you were wrong initially

Shut your dirty mouth.

When you use slash, the you have fraction whose numerator is 6 and whose denominator is 2(2 + 1).

X/Y = X ÷ Y
6/2(2 + 1) = 6 ÷ [2(2 + 1)]

6 ÷ [2(2 + 1)] is different from 6 ÷ 2(2 + 1). One has two grouping symbols (brackets) while the other has just one. When you solve the expression in the grouping symbols of both expressions from inside to outside, which is what you must always do first, you get 6/6 or 6 ÷ 6 for the first expression and you get 6 ÷ 2 × 3 for the second expression.

OLODO RABATA. SHAME! SHAME!

Algebra has variables arithmetic does not besides the way you open the bracket with arithmetic is wrong check this article to clear your doubts.

Firstly the answer is 2, this is why it's very important the way you put the parenthesis. Following the order of bodmas, the B-bracket indicate we solve everything inside the parenthesis, if there is nothing else to solve you proceed with the next order that's D-division since there's no exponent, in which 6/2 gives you 3, from there you can find the remaining equation.

6 ÷ 2 × (x + 1) = 9
3 × (x + 1) = 3(x + 1) = 9
From here, you can divide both sides by 3 and solve for x, or you could distribute 3 over (x + 1) first and then solve for x. Let's try the first step and second step.

STEP 1:
3(x + 1) = 9
(x + 1) = x + 1 = 9 ÷ 3 = 3
x + 1 = 3
x = 3 – 1 = 2

STEP 2:
3(x + 1) = 9
3x + 3 = 9
3x = 9 – 3 = 6
3x = 6
x = 6 ÷ 3 = 2

BluntNigerian:
Guess What??
I don't even know what to say again.
..
Which of these two calculators got the correct answer??

The way at which you type is the way answer is derived, according to the question
6/2(2+1) it is indirectly 6/[2(2+1)]
So if you type on a phone or a normal modulus calculator,it solve it like this
6/2(2+1)
6/2=3
2+1=3
So 3*3=9
But if you type this into a third party calculator it is solve like this
6/2(2+1)
6/2(3) ...2*3=6
6/6=1
To stop the argument,try to press it in d calculator the indirect way 6/[2(2+1)]

if you come across both answers during examination, gently pick any. afterall, Life no balance!
