xD I think that if i would have used the / instead of the division I would have realized. Lol
Tricky problem.
1) Perform the operations inside a parenthesis first
2) Then exponents
3) Then multiplication and division, from left to right
4) Then addition and subtraction, from left to right

You feel inclined to do 2(9+3) first but its actually 48/2 first.
Nobody uses the division sign anyways, most people just use / lol

~ <3 ~ <3 ~ <3 ~ <3 ~

Weeeeell, technically you do the (9+3) first and then 48/2 but I don't suppose that matters too muchOriginally Posted by bamag
Weeellll technically 2(9+3) = 2(12) sooooo
I was taught BEDMAS in elementary school and it "must occur in a left to right order". I use calculators now and according to my calculator it says 288 so I will go with that until someone asks their calc prof and he or she says otherwise lol.
I learned how to calculate those type of questions when I was 12, c'mon guys!
[COLOR="#f75a6d"][SIZE=1]I'm no good at math, period. However, I just did the problem the way I was taught and got 288.
48
288...
but if you use another logic, can be another answer ^^
But if was: 48
