The aliens got to your head. I learned that multiplication and division are equal. I Googled "order of operations", clicked every link on the first page.

To name a few. But here's the problem and how I solved it Mr. oojay. First, parentheses. You get: 3!
6/2*(3)=?
Now it's division and multiplication, so left to right.
6/2*3=?
3*3=9
I'm sorry, but I've literally never heard anyone ever say one was more important than the other. I even Googled the problem, and Google calculator was the only thing that came up. It told me the answer was 9.
