That is a well known bug in cheap calculators (that apparently still exists today). They do not correctly resolve the missing * in 2(3+9) leading to the false result 2.
>48 / 2(3 + 9)
*>48 / (6 +18) - You could distribute the 2 here.
>48 / 24
*This is the fault these calculators make, essentially. Breaking the left to right evaluation with a distribution step.
