48/(18+6)

48/24 = 2

Why wouldn't you divide first? Just because the 12 is in parentheses doesn't mean you multiply first. If (2*12) was in parentheses together you would.

Wouldn't you multiply the 2(12) rather than dividing the 48 by 2???

Multiply (MY) Divide (Dear)

This is where I'm scratching my head, b/c to get the 288, you have to divide before you multiply.

in the order of operations

Multiply/Divide happen left to right

so do, add/subtract.
