It's okay to admit you thought it would prove you right and now you're trying to act like it sucks because it didn't.
Yea, that was pretty funny.

1/3 is a fraction then answer is 1
If it's 3/1/3 then answer is nine. As written neither answer is wrong. There, happy?

You're making an assumption that those two signs mean the same.

I would love an example of how they are different that applies here.

Yes. Yes you are stupid. It's not 9.
It is 9. Wolfram Alpha says it's 9 if you copy and paste the equation exactly how it is written.
Furthermore, it is no different than asking:
9 - 3/1/3 + 1 = ?

The answer is 1 and all of you fricks on the first page is dumm
9 - 3 ÷ (1/3) + 1
9 - 9 + 1 = 1
But 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

Im not mad. I am saying this math problem as written, only has 1 correct answer. It just does
And that answer is 9
If you want the answer to be 1, you need to write it as :
9 – 3 ÷ (1/3) + 1
0r
9 – 3 ÷ .3333333 + 1
And that answer is 9
If you want the answer to be 1, you need to write it as :
9 – 3 ÷ (1/3) + 1
0r
9 – 3 ÷ .3333333 + 1
Posted on 1/26/18 at 10:02 am to LNCHBOX
So the answer is either 9 or 1 1/3?
Now I feel like the Aggie.

It doesn't though. But maybe if you keep saying it, it will be true.

I’ll admit I thought it would be programmed to differentiate btw those two symbols

With the division sign I'm assuming 1/3 is a third
Exactly. One-third is a number; not a mathematical operation. That's why the smart people get the answer 1 and people that think they're smarter get 9.

Damn terd you have some purdy handwriting.
