Discuss.


multiplication and division are supposed to be applied left to right when they are on an equal level,

as are addition and subtraction.

thus:

6/2(1+2)=X
6/2(3)=X
3(3)=X
9=X

X=9


the other way, which is incorrect:
[spoiler2=]6/2(3)=X
6/6=X
1=X

1=X
X=1[/spoiler2]

I hear that "/" is given a slightly higher rank than the division symbol. Discuss.
