6 6 6
----- = --------- = --- = 1
2*(1+2) 2*1+2*2 6
That's how you would do that.
So you're saying the order of operations is wrong if you think this.

So many dumb people here it's unbelievable, just listen to yourselves thinking you're all right, it's quite pathetic.
6/2(1+2) (where 6/2 is a fraction -> 3 it's 3 * 3 = 9)
However, if it's meant as (written in topic title) you're supposed to divide it so it's:
6
---------- = 1
2 (1+2)
2 (1+2) is the same as 2*1 + 2*2 = 2 + 4 = 6
which would give us 6/6 = 1
No, it wouldn't. The way the equation is written is completely irrelevant. 6/2 and 6 divided by 2 are the same exact thing.
