Unless you decide you want to change BEDMAS around and go right to left or unless you want to argue that 2(9+3) isn't equal to 2(12) in which case the bracket can be dropped and made into 2*12.
48/2*12 = 288
Don't know why you would do 2(9+3) first.

Because we aren't retarded like you. The equation is NOT 48/2*12. it's not written out that way.
It's MORE than obvious (9+3)=12. Shouldn't be ANY argument in that. So 2(9+3)= 2(12) which = 2*12 which = 24. So take the first number which is 48 and divide that by the answer of 2*12 which is 24 and you get 2. This isn't hard.
