My point was that these sources are more valid than "my brother's girlfriend is a high school teacher and she said", etc. The answer is still 288. Nobody in this thread has shown any mathematical rule from a valid source that would allow the 2(12) to take precedence over the 48÷2. Not once. Changing the equation to suit your purposes does not prove anything.Originally Posted by balloonoboy
Asking a machine doesn't work. TI calculators, the creme de la creme of computing, aren't valid when handling such problems. Wolfram Alpha totally changes the equation. And you're using google as a computation engine? Seriously?Originally Posted by JChambers

I can do it too.

Mine are verifiable.
