    Yes, at least by the most common agreed on convention. Almost any mathematician, programming language, search engine or spreadsheet software will say it’s 9. It is for all intents and purposes the right answer.

      There is no right answer. It just depends on convention. It’s like color vs colour, neither has been shouted down from the heavens to be the only way to write something, it depends on culture.

        There very much is an agreed on convention, some people are just not using it and that is entirely their problem.
