    6÷2(1+2) = ?

    OR

    9 – 3 ÷ 1/3 + 1 = ?

    there are 2 answers to both and they are right in their own way, depends on what basis have you been taught mathematics ? Most answers will follow the PEDMAS / BODMAS, however the 2nd answer follows a historical order of operations somewhere in 1920’s and is therefore also correct..
