you can also just distribute the (6/2), same thing.
(6/2) + (12/2) = 3 + 6 = 9


The only way to do it simplified, anyway :loL:

because the ONLY way it is possible to say the 6 is separate is if it's 6/2(1+2)=??

and even then it's foolish to make that mistake

with an actual division sign, it is part of the equation NOT separate, thus you work it in as shown (6÷2)*(1+2)=


I honestly didn't know that there's a difference between / and ÷. If that's the case, I guess I was wrong.

You can interpret it that way, but it would be wrong.

Those 2 only use bedmas (order of operations)
They don't look at the equation logically
