Who the hell would write a problem like that without adding in parentheses?

What's funny is, OP should have just posted the image that goes along with this problem that makes solving it simple and argument free:

Someone intentionally trying to see how you apply the order of operations and to create conflict.

Apply this to your post, but subtract wolfram alpha and add a calculator.
Hope you can follow that math, simpleton.

The same people in the same threads arguing the same things, and it's all intended to get you to do just that.
I don't get it.
The answer is 1.5 anyway. The / is meant to separate numerator and denominator, with implied parentheses around each.
Fight me.

Yep, like I said on the previous page, ICYMI
this is one of those stupid Facebook memes that has the initial problem written out in a shitty way that leaves it open for interpretation which in turn provides the opportunity for endless circles of debate Posted on 1/26/18 at 10:10 am to GRTiger

Assumption.
It's not, but it's also not worth arguing, as the original problem, as written, is 9.
3 ÷ .33 would be an assumption.
