minus-squareAnd009@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-211 months agoMultiplication VS division doesn’t matter just like order of addition and subtraction doesn’t matter… You can do either and get same results. Edit : the order matters as proven below, hence is important
minus-squareprime_number_314159@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-211 months agoIf you do only multiplication first, then 2×3÷3×2 = 6÷6 = 1. If you do mixed division and multiplication left to right, then 2×3÷3×2 = 6÷3×2 = 2×2 = 4. Edit: changed whitespace for clarity

If you do only multiplication first, then 2×3÷3×2 = 6÷6 = 1.
If you do mixed division and multiplication left to right, then 2×3÷3×2 = 6÷3×2 = 2×2 = 4.
