The answer is 288
Write the equation like this to make it simpler
48 divided by 2 x (9+3)
so it then becomes 48 divided by 2 x 12
you then go from left to right. People are incorrectly multiplying 2(12) first, which is incorrect. The 2 is outside the parenthesis so it is simply 2 x 12
so 48 divided by 2 is 24
24X12 = 288
