In spite of MDAS, Multiplication and Division are equal in precedence. Evaluation proceeds from left to right. The use of the 2(..) notation for multiplication is tempting you to treat 2(9+3) as a single unit. 48 / 2 x (9+3), with the multiplication sign written out, seems less ambiguous (though I don't think it is). Again, it's a screwy example. |
