You're all just arguing as to whether the (9+3) is in the denominator. OP, is it or isn't it?

You're inFREDULOUS.

IT DOESNT MAKE A BLOODY loving DIFFERENCE WETHER ITS IN THE loving DENOMINATOR

That would actually make sense because division is after multiplication. Well stuff.

No it's not. All multiplication and division is done from left to right, same with addition and subtraction.

If you still think it's not 288, go forget yourself.

you clearly havent been to algebra yet

2(9+3) is
2*(9+3)

OR
2x(9+3) if you're too handicapped to figure out *

I've been through Algebra. If the equation were written in a way less confusing, I'd have been able to get the correct answer.

Ah, that works then.

Yep, still stickin' with 288.

You're not supposed to calculate baguettes first.

This is not related, but it involves math.
Somehow.
I just realized something.

I AM 100% POSITIVE THE ANSWER IS TWO

the indication of / is that a number is divided by
when a number is divided by something
the number is the numerator, while the something is the denominator
