it only took 1 equation to break blf :(
well this thread just showed me that half of blf failed seventh grade math.
I'm sorry but this isn't even hard
I genuinely don't understand where anyone's getting 2
When you have a number directly against a parentheses like that, it's multiplied across the entire contents of the parentheses. THESE DO NOT BECOME SEPARATE UNTIL IT IS DIVIDED BY THE ADJACENT NUMBER OR MULTIPLIED OUT VIA THE DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY.

PEMDAS is very flawed in this case.
not in this casewait, yes. in this case. but 2*9 + 2*3 gives you exactly the same answer as 2 * (9+3) so idk what the point was in mentioning that lol
My TI-84 plus says 288, my manual solving on paper gives me 288, I'm gonna say it's 288.PEMDAS is very flawed in this case.
...48/2(9+3) can be rewritten as: 48 24 24 -------- = -------- = ------ = 22(9+3) (9+3) 12
