Why is everyone so stupid?! The answer is obviously 9! In the order of operations multiplication and division are equals, which means that you do whatever comes first. (Same with addition and subtraction). So you do
6/2(1 +2)
6/2(3)
3(3)
=9

This is obvious because 2 can be written as a fraction, in other words,
6/2 = 6*1/2
Dear @Jbreezy, do a little word phrase, try to read 6/2(1+x) as 6 divided by twice the one more than a number. Do you still think it will be 9 if you replace "x" by 2?
