Answer is 2. Yes you do from left to right but (9+3) is done first because of the "( )"

Texas might be right. So it is 48 divided by 24 ( 2 x 12)
I need to not belong to bodybuilding site. I might just became one of them

(24)(12) = 288

The question for 288 answer should look like (48/2)(9+3)

This question could have written as 48/(2(9+2))
