"Depending on whether one interprets the expression as  (48/2)(9+3)  or as  48/(2(9+3))  one gets  288  or  2.  There is no standard convention as to which of these two ways the expression should be interpreted, so, in fact,  48/2(9+3)  is ambiguous.  To render it unambiguous, one should write it either as  (48/2)(9+3)  or  48/(2(9+3)).  This applies, in general, to any expression of the form  a/bc :  one needs to insert parentheses to show whether one means  (a/b)c  or  a/(bc).

It is 32.

I cannot fathom why you don't understand the concept of left and right. You've been reading English all your life, correct?

1052 AD was a leap year. This number is 100% special because of that and you should all praise him for he is the king of this super special page

you've got the first two parts right. MD and AS are both sets. but their order is not M -> D -> A -> S, it is M/D (left to right) -> A/S (left to right)

Actually, the answer is not possible, In New Zealand we use BEDMAS, Division then Multiplication. Whereas in America you guys use PEMDAS.

Any question that resolves around two people who use entirely different order of operations will always have two or more answers.

do you need a 5th grade math remediation course
Division and multiplication are a set, same with addition and subtraction so their order remains the same.

BEDMAS
Brackets ()
Exponents (Powers)
Division /
Multiplication *
Addition +
Subtraction -

48/2(9+3)

Brackets first,
48/2*12
If there is nothing after the 2 then it's times (See: Algebra)
48/24 = 2

there you go the answer is two you monogloids.

wow this is easy
*cough* handicapped *cough*


I'll spill the answer, it can be anything outside of 288 aswell as 288. So technically you're all right apart from setro here who is a little on the special side.

It's done from left to right, so the answer is 288. This is how math works.
What about BEDMAS / PEMDAS

Everytime someone joins my server I lag for like 2 seconds, then never again. It's because you're sending data to them for them to download, it increases with how many add-ons are enabled thus generating lag.

Use chrome, it's faster and less bloated than firefox, plus firefox is turning to stuff.

Start a game with only default add-ons installed. Ctrl K and see if it crashes.
