Id say its 1.
Use variables and its obvious .
x / y(a + b).
Which evaluates to:
x / (ya + yb)
Plug in the numbers
X =6
Y =2
A = 1
B = 2
And you get 1.

Only if you completely ignore PEMDAS and you're British and take the order of operations right to left.
The rest of us not interested in a completely wrong farking answer will continue to go left to right and get... 9.

On 2nd thought 6/2(1+2) is 9. These kinds of stupid questions are what they put on some tests and theyre racist sometimes too.
