You can show your workings if you want.

No, solving it from left to right is not necessarily correct.

PEMDAS

The M and D are interchangeable. (Going from left to right.)



The correct answer is 288.

It's clearly 288 if you follow PEMDAS correctly.

Dunno if people don't understand parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition and subtraction. This shit is elementary.

inb4 Rath you don't know shit because you no longer go to school. :cry:

Fun fact though different calculators will output different results... some will output 288 and others will output 2. It just depends if the calculator is scientific or not.

48 / 2 * (9+3)
48 / 2 * (12)
48 / 2 * 12
48 / 12
288

48 / 2 * (9+3)
48 / 2 * (12)
48 / 2 * 12
48 / 24
2


Damn scientific and non-scientific calculators.

You can get either answer because this is a poorly written equation.

So 1+1 is a theory? You're stupid.

It's B. 288. You do the parenthesis first so that (12). Then you do the multiply/division part, but from left to right, so 48/2=24. Then the 24(12)=288.

... easy.

48/2 ( 9 + 3)
( 9 + 3) = (12)

48/2 (12)
48/2 = 24
24 (12)
288.

Yes it is. You're stupid for not knowing that math is a Theory. Ask your Math teacher. He/She will tell you "Yes, Math is a theory"
