Actually why do we need it since division goes first then multiplying,everyone who i asked(all of them did math in math college said that).If the equation was written like this 48/2*(9+3) 288 would be the right answer

You solve the brackets ok i'll do it
48/2*(9+3)
48/2*(12)
24*(12)=288 valla
since 2 isn't in brackets

Ok Brother i will explain it for you Simply plz read it 1 more time then post


48% 2 ( 9 + 3 ) =

 now we  leave 48  and solve 2 ( 9 + 3 ) and the way u must solve it is just like this
     2 ( 9   + 3  )  =   ( 18 + 6 ) Cool ?  now its just like this 48% ( 18+6)  =   48 % 24 = 2 so u got it now or what?

I can assume that there is some ppl who dont know the answer but im sure that some guys here just trolling.


As said many times u should try calculator. The pictures with calculators in link posted few posts upper is confusing. Two calculators show 2 and other 2 show 288. There is one correct answer and it is 288. Owner of calculator witch show 2 should ask his money back. Mathematics is exact science.

48/2*(9+3)  firstly brackets 48/2*12

now u can do 48/2*12 = 24*12 = 288

or even 48*12/2 = 576/2 = 288
What goes around comes around!

Ok check it out you uber math pros. why arent you just simply doing the fucking thing from left to right . Yeah its right you HAVE do the stuff IN the brackets first , but who said that multiplying the 2 with the (9+3) has priority? So its just like that : 

48 / 2 * (9 + 3) =    // now you are doing the stuff in the brackets first which is 9+3=12  and you can remove the brackets now , you dont need brackets for a single number.

Then it goes like this :

48/2 * 12 =

and then go either this way  576/2 or this way 24 * 12 .

So no matter if you divide 48 with 2 first and then multiply with 12 or multiply 48 with 12 first and then divide by 2 , you will get   288

Peace I am out

dude did u learn some thing called  when u have number before a Brackets and the relation Between this Number and this Bracket is Beat or division u must solve it before any goddamn thing else?

On any exam I'd write 2 cause of this:

Try to make it like this:

(I replace 48 with X , and put 2 to try if its correct)

x / 2(9+3) = 2
x / 2(12) = 2
x / 24 = 2
x = 2*24
x = 48  > Correct



Now, i replace 48 with X again , but this time i put right side 288 ( = 288 ) i get :

x / 2(9+3) = 288
x / 2(12) = 288
x / 24 = 288
x = 288*24
x = 6912 > Not correct (not 48)

So, answer is 2. My opinion.

Fuck, I had nice wall of text incoming, and erased all by accident. RAGE.


I'll shorten it.

This equation uses informal implied multiplication, which does NOT have strict, formalised rules to follow, and is used here improperly, without proper brackets to clear out ambiguity. Therefore, in my eyes, is nonsense, and both versions are kinda correct. It's like, Schrodinger's math :D
Though meme author was brilliant troll.

So, example. Left to right logic.

Sin (2*pi) = 0 - that's for sure.

But this:

sin 2 pi = sin(2) * pi = definitely not 0

Because who said you are supposed to multiply first? Oh wait, everyone does that. Looks like everyone disobey most basic rules.

See what I did there? I know sine example is somewhat dumb because it's traditional, but there are no formal rules either. Again, use brackets or... (yes it's a link)
Otherwise it makes no sense.

@below, the fuck did I just read :D
