\(9+(\frac{1}{2})^4*48\)
Find what \((\frac{1}{2})^4\) equals:
\((\frac{1}{2})^4\)
\(\frac{1^4}{2^4}\)
\(\frac{1}{2^4}\)
Then \(48 * \frac{1}{2^4}\)
\(\frac{1*48}{2^4}\)
\(\frac{48}{2^4}\)
Factor 48 which will come to \(2^4 * 3\)
\(\frac{2^4 * 3}{2^4}\)
\(3\)
Now continue
\(9 + 3\)
\(12\)
Your answer would be 12
