Work Step by Step

Solve using PEMDAS (The priority list for solving expressions: Parentheses, exponents, [multiplication, division], [addition, subtraction]. For the operations in the brackets, solve from left to right) For fractions, the numerator and denominator must both be simplified before division can occur. $\dfrac{6+9\div 3}{3^2} = \dfrac{6+9\div3}{9} = \dfrac{6+3}{9} = \dfrac{9}{9} = 1$
