6÷2(1+2) = ... 1 or 9?

I'm confused please tell me the answer and explain.

Look at the post "Sticky: 48÷2(9+3) and similar" just above...
 


Sorry. Thanks!

But can you explain to me why 9?
I need a clarified explanation for me to answer a friend of mine's question. I know it's 9 but it's very hard to explain to others by my knowledge alone.
