Yeah...I'm not gonna read all 50 pages unless it was worth it. Any exposures or bans?

Nope, just someone getting warned for insulting someone,
Don't even bother reading any of it, it's just people explaining how to do a math problem.
prymone, nothing changed since you went to sleep.

literally it should be read as 48 "all-over" 2(9+3)

48÷2(9+3) =/= 48/2(9+3). Simple as that.
I swear OP changed the title of this, which originally read 48/2(9+3) and now reads 48÷2(9+3)... .... ...
---------As Originally Asked-----------
Using PEMDAS, 48/2(9+3) = 48/2(12) = 576/2 = 288
---------As Modified-------------
48÷2(9+3) = 48÷2(12) = 48÷24 = 2
All you cats writing the equation...
48/2(9+3) = 48/24 = 2 need to get back in math class; 48/2(9+3) =/= 48/(2(9+3))

Well there have been other math majors who entered this thread who came up with 288. Just sayin.
