This
has been sort of controversial on an X post. Usually BODMAS is used for
precedence of operators. So to work out an arithmetic expression,
calculation of what's inside brackets is done first, then orders
(powers), division, multiplication, addition and subtraction. (Sometimes
called "PEDMAS" for parentheses, exponentiation, division,
multiplication, addition and subtraction).
So is it 6 / 2 (1 + 2) = 6 / 2 x 3 = 3 x 3 = 9
or
6 / 2(1 + 2) = 6 / 2 (3) = 6 / 6 = 1 ?
