Exactly how I did it in my head. No idea where 288 came from. Some people forgot their order of operations?

But yeah, you follow BEDMAS/PEDMAS
48/2(9+3)
BRACKETS/PARENTHESIS FIRST,
48/2(12)
After this, those brackets are simply a multiplication symbol, so you can rewrite as:
48/2x12
At this point you follow BEDMAS and go left to right
48/2 = 24
Then you have 24(12) or 24x12
= 288
