Let us see who is correct. I know the answer.


RE: 48÷2(9+3) = ? - Endless™ - 04-07-2011

Is the answer 288?


RE: 48÷2(9+3) = ? - Deltron - 04-07-2011

PEMDAS

48÷2(9+3)
48÷2(12)
24(12)
288

Order of operations, of course. Smile

Deltron is correct. Same with Sync.

Some people end up getting 2.

simple
you don't remember that acrostic thing.
Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiple
Divide
Add

If I am thinking right the answer is 288.

Yes, but in this problem you could also 'logically' come up with 2 being the answer. (Using PEMDAS)
