Calculators don't often follow pemdas correctly (except for the really expensive ones), as they're designed just to do simple things with very limited logic.
In all seriousness, you have to see it like this : (6/2) * (1+2)
Not like this : 6 / (2*(1+2))

[QUOTE=Swog;37488993]I get 1.
Order it this way:
6 / 2(1+2)
The Order of Operation states:
Parentheses
Exponents
Multiply/Divide
Add/Subtract
6/2(1+2)
After P> 6/ 2*3
After M> 6/6[/QUOTE]
No,
6/2(1+2)
6/2(3)
3(3)
9
PEMDAS says go left to right if you're dealing with addition/subtraction or multiplication/division.
Whoever disagreed with my last statement is wrong.
I just feel like saying.
