My point?
Wolfram Alpha is wrong.
Stop trolling already.

I'd say the one who's disagreeing with every modern computational device is the one trolling, but I'm not a mod....Originally Posted by kingcrux31

I didn't even use Wolfram Alpha. It's the same equation either way you wrote it down. They both come up to 288. If you can tell me step by step how you got to 2, then please do.Originally Posted by kingcrux31

You really need to go back to school if you think the two problems I posted are the same.

THe equation isnt 48 over 2.
There is a difference
You must do the entire paranthesis equation first which is 2(9+3) which equals 24.
THE ANSWER IS 2

Once again dipset... Step number two is wrong. 48/2(9+3) is NOT the same as 48/2 * (9+3). THose are two different questions.
Brackets mean to multiply whats attached to it. What you are writing is 48/2 * * 9+3
YOU HAVE TO SOLVE THE ENTIRE PARANTH BEFORE MOVING TO STEP 2. STEP 1 YOU MUST SOLVE 2(9+3) NOT JUST THE 9+3

Wrong it's whats inside it that counts not what is attached. Dipset is correct. I can find you endless amounts of sites that say it's whats inside the brackets that count and not what's attached to it. Can you even find any sources?

The thing is, 2 isnt in the parenthesis. So you dont have to multiply right after adding. 2( ) is the same as 2*( ). Its what we were taught early in middle school.

In a simple problem like this, where the problem follows simply the order of operations, they should, and do, give you the correct answer.Originally Posted by kingcrux31
