Socialism.

5mn will be in here any minute complaining that someone's personal liberty was taken away, that preventable disease outbreaks are low on his concern list.

There's a video on YouTube on building the LM. Is your Dad in it?

I know this is the science thread, but if you like space travel, go see Apollo 11 on the biggest screen you can find. Wonderful documentary of events 50 years ago.

Is that still on limited release? There aren’t any large screen theaters showing it near me :-/

I've heard it's on some IMAX screens scattered around the country. We saw it on a small one, and it was amazing.

6÷2(2+1)

Is the answer 9 or 1?

One calculator gave the answer as 9, the other 1.

Using ()MDAS, the answer is 1.
If you treat ÷ & * equally, and solve it as 6÷2*3 the answer is 9.

Opinions??

It's 1.

Put the 6 above the 2(2+1) 6/2(2+1) and it's 1. It's still 1 if you leave it in a straight line with ÷.

Wolfram Alpha: 9

Re: Science: Everything explained by PV=nRT, F=ma=Gm(1)•m(2)/r^2

6÷2(2+1) = 9

This would also be read as 6÷2*3. Because the multiplication and division hold the same importance in an equation, you then move from left to right in your order of operations.

Thus... 6÷2=3, and 3*3=9.

Heh. I was wrong. My bad.

1. PEMDAS. M > D.

Edit: oh sh-t. That's wrong. How on earth can I have been wrong about this for 55 years and never actually gotten a wrong result? I guess parens have become ubiquitous.
