Another thing that might help....

Just now read some of the responses and I see that the () causes confusion.

Someone said you can replace the () with * after you solve it. But, that is incorrect. The () were used to tell you to do that part first.

48/ 2(9+3)

You have to solve the () first and then complete the denominator. The denominator includes the () which means you have to completely solve it before you move on.
