I just love that this place is turning into the 4-day-late 4chan.

depending on how you do your order of operations, you get either 2 or 288

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

Woops, but that's not quite true.

it's only because it's tied to a bracket

if it had been 48/2*(9+3)

It would be 288

Brackets or parentheticals are only priority for the things inside the parentheses. The multiplication is simply a notation for standard multiplication.

It's a trick because you want to think the 2 is attached in some special way to the 12 inside (it makes me almost want to think it's an exponential) but it's just multiplication.

Quote:
The standard order of operations, or precedence, is expressed in the following chart.

terms inside brackets
exponents and roots
multiplication and division
addition and subtraction


But the answer is still 42.
