    9 + (9 + 9 ) / 9 = 11

    9 + (18) / 9

    9 + 2 = 11

    What is rule #1 in Arithmetic?

    ( 9 + 6 ) - 9/9 = 14
    ( 9 + 6 ) + 9/9 = 16
    ( 9 + 9 ) + ( 6/sqrt9 ) = 20

    If 99 isn't allowed:

    (((Square root 9)! x 9) + (Square root 9)!)/Square root 9 = 20

    Sorry children

    No 99, no 6. Just 9.

    Greg, I like your approach. It is different from my way but I like it. You got game mate. 16 works but not 20.

    let's see.

    (square root9)! = 6
    6 x 9 =54

    54 + (square root 9)! = 60

    60/ (Square root 9) = 20

    Why doesn't this work?
