Same thing.
Parentheses - Brackets (Rank 1)
Exponent - Order (Rank 2)
Multiply - Division (Rank 3) - same rank multiplication and division - does not matter - just in order of availability
Division - Multiply (Rank 3)
Add - Add (Rank 4) - add and subtract same rule as multiply and divide - whatever is available carry out.
Subtract - Subtract (Rank 4)
PEMDAS is just easier to remember because of = Please Excuse My Dead Aunty Sally which is a well known phrase in algebra.

Therefore, you multiply before you divide so the answer is one.

Brackets ....... one plus two equals three.
Off ..............two times three equals six.
Division.............six divided by six equals one.
anything else is just moving the goal posts to suit theory.
