it was meant to confuse the readers in the first place, i guess.

[yiennahs]

dependi man siguro kung unsa porma sa given...
kung ing-ani..


2 siguro jud ang answer ug kung ing-ani sad



288 ang answer.
correct me if im wrong.hehe

that is if giingun ana niya, however it's just plain line "48÷2(9+3) = ?", so 2 jud ang answer, kung ang prof mubutang ug question, for sure di niya palibugun ang studyante.

Ang answer kay 2 from 48÷2(9+3) equation kay giingon ani man pag post sa TS. Agree with @khuahn88 also sa iyang presentation. Yaw namo paglalis

[bedouin]

the answer is 2.....

it follows the MDAS rule and always work first on numbers that are inside the (),{},[] groupings..hehehe...mdas = multiply, divide, add, subtract

[sanlinux]

2 mn akong answer ani...

[reginakrys]

una ang parenthesis, way lalis.. pero ang MDAS dli mana strictly multiplication una, division second.. same order na sila.. bale ingon ani pagprocess:

1. solve ang nasa sud sa parenthesis, bracket, etc etc
2. MD or DM
3. AS or SA

gihimo ra nang MDAS para sayon timan-an..

therefore i conclude ambiguous pagbutang ang equation, therefore duha ka possible answers..

bitaw, pangutana mog math majors oi.. =D

[Htennek]

2 man tingali answer ani. hehe

[bearish]

if you are a computer programmer and you code that equation, whatever language you use the result would be 288.

Not to mention, the people who made the computer language are more than math major.

Even if you try that equation in excel, the same way as it is given, the result would be 288.

[yiennahs]

the problem is you don't compute it after college, you have it in high school, and in high school, you are definitely NOT a computer programer

[polarisvenus]

the answer is 2...very basic
