By multiplying the 2 by 3, wouldn't that mean you're pairing it with the divisor? Even if you did multiplication first, shouldn't you be multiplying 6 by 3? And then getting 18, then dividing by 2? Thereby getting 9.



The 1 is unnecessary, but I wanted to add it so that everything would line up nicely in Photoshop.
