9+9-9:9x9

How and why ?
9+9-9:9x9

(9+9-9)/(9x9)

9/81 = 1/9

but hell, i'm probably wrong

EDIT- google reckons we should do it like 9 + 9 - ((9 / 9) * 9), thus getting 9.

9+9-9/9x9

Treating the bold issues first, as the sign is always attached to the number.

9+9-1x9

Now, using the BODMAS technique, multiplication next.

9+9-9

Now, it starts to get pretty simple.

9+9-9 = 9

Use use BEDMAS.
Order of operations. Brackets, exponents, division/multiplication, addition/subtraction.

The solution has already been posted.  Not everyone needs to broadcast they have a handle on basic math, either.

I don't see your try either. but you probably knew the result before it was even posted. And now you will say you were right with the result.

Riiiight.  Math is my job (seriously, I'm a physicist).  I can do this crap in my sleep.

PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponent, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)

9 + 9 - 9 / 9 X 9

First, do the division.

9 + 9 - 1 X 9

Then do the multiplication.

9 + 9 - 9

Addition.

18 - 9

And finally, subtraction.

9.
