I am in the first group. After performing what is inside the parenthesis, the equation should be solved from left to right, according to how I learned it. If you wanted 2 to be the correct answer, you would have to write the equation like this... 48/(2(9+3)), again, according to how I learned how to solve equations (which does follow PEMDAS).
