The 6/2(1+2) math problem is a viral internet phenomenon that consistently causes heated arguments due to the ambiguity of the order of operations. The debate centers on whether the division (6/2) or the multiplication by juxtaposition (2(3)) should be performed first. Depending on the convention used—PEMDAS, BODMAS, or the older rule of implicit multiplication—users arrive at either 9 or 1. First gaining massive traction on platforms like Facebook and Twitter around 2011, the meme highlights the flaws in mathematical notation and the passion people have for proving others wrong online. It is widely used to spark engagement or mock the varying interpretations of elementary arithmetic.
