My mistake. It should have been written 6/2(1+2)

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

My cat vigorously disagrees. But I’m sticking to the answer is 9.

As written, I see it as a polynomial fraction. The / separates numerator from denominator. The denominator is a binomial expansion. Simplification Leads to 6/6 or 1.
