Follow Order of Operations: First, we need to follow the order of operations, which is Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). This is often abbreviated as PEMDAS. We start with the parentheses. Calculate the expression inside the parentheses (1+2).
Calculate Expression Inside Parentheses: Now that we have the result from the parentheses, we can replace the original expression with this result. The expression now is 6÷2(3).
Perform Division: Next, according to PEMDAS, we should do multiplication and division from left to right. Here, we have a division followed by a multiplication. Perform the division first: 6÷2.
Multiply Result: Now, multiply the result of the division by the number outside the parentheses. The expression is now 3(3).
