To simplify the expression \(3 \times 4^2 - 9 \times 2\), we will adhere to the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).
1. **Calculate the exponent**: \(4^2 = 16\)
2. **Multiply**:
- \(3 \times 16 = 48\)
- \(9 \times 2 = 18\)
3. **Subtract**:
- \(48 - 18 = 30\)
Thus, the simplified expression is:
\[
30
\]
