I noticed, but didn't care.

It's 288.

we'll ignore the 48, as it's importance in order of operations is nonexistent.
2(9+3) translates into 2 times the sum of 9 and 3.
2(12) = 24
we plug that into the original equation to get:
48/24 = ?
2 = ?

Brush up on your math skills kael, you can't even solve a simple math problem. PEMDAS states to perform all operations INSIDE the Parenthesis. 2 isn't within the parenthesis. If you use it right, 48/2(9+3)=288. Not 2. Just like how 1/2(2+2) isn't 1/8. You need a calculator, brah?
