For instance 1(1+2) + 3(3-1) means 1(3) + 3(2) and that means 3 + 6 and equals 9. And 48/2(9+3) = 48/2(12) = 48/24 = 2. Whether its plus , multiply or dividing, its still the same.
Oh wait I just saw the catch to the whole thing. That the brackets should be seen as a multiply sign. Well this is a stupid question anyway *walks away*
