9 or 1 depending on your preferred order of operations.
It's a poorly written equation and the author should be admonished.

Oldest trick in the "meme equation" book. Leave ambiguity and call everyone a retard.

Quoted By:

If this was posed as a problem I'd look up the order of operations the book used. If it's in a paper or other source it would have both sides of the equation and I'd know what the author meant either way. It is a complete non-issue.

The correct answer is 5, the mean of both possible answers.

Everyone in this thread is either trolling or retarded. It's 9 and there's nothing ambiguous about the order of operations.

It's ambiguous. A perfect example of why you shouldn't use the obelus (or solidus without proper grouping).

This. Although the ambiguity comes from changes in details taught in the past, but there is one correct way to do it.
