Trick question. No math equation is set out like that.

9 + 3 = 12

48 ÷ 2 = 12

12 x 12 = 144

The answer's 144

Yup. And finishing Math at school already has taught me that this question in the title it mathematically incorrectly set out. It has two answers.

I gotta try this.

48 ÷ 2 (9+3) = x

48 ÷ 2 x 12 = x

24 x 12 = x

x = 288

24(12)=
288

PEMDAS

Multiplication or division first depending which comes first in the equation then
Addition or subtraction first depending on which comes first in the equation

I use BODMAS. Which stands for Brackets, Operations, Division, Multiplication, Adding, Subtraction.

My calculation:

48/2(9+3)
48/2(12)
12(12)
12*12
=144

You're using PEMDAS. Which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

Your calculation:
48/(18+6)
48/24
2
