@shei.caguitla It has to do with the order of operations when simplifying algebraic or arithmetical expressions. In some texts, it is known as PEMDAS, BODMAS, or BEDMAS. Read more about it and the order of operations at the given link. "... when you see something like ... 7 + (6 × 52 + 3) ... what part should you calculate first?
