Ok, it is time for Homework - 48÷2(9+3) = ???

[RG]

should be 2

but someone could do the error of 9+3 =12 then do the 48/2 =24 then times 24x12 which is 288

but then if you're doing that one type of stuff where you change the divison into multiplication and turn a positive number into a negative then it's like 48x-2(9+3) if so then it's like -1152

but I really don't fully understand all that ... just getting into some of it in my math class. and 80% of the time I am puzzled and have no clue, just lots of numbers and magic switch arounds etc. etc. but yeah I would go with 2 since that looks like a straight forward problem.

Naw it's 2.

Google "PEMDAS" and you will learn again what you forgot

48 divided by 2 = 24. 9+3=12
24x12= 288

288 is the answer

You sure it is not 288?
