What the fuck is the difference in implicit vs explicit? It’s the same operation, why the fuck does it matter if there is a symbol?
Multiplication comes first, then division.
Division is a form of Multiplication, just as subtraction is a form of addition. You multiply and divide in the same step, left to right
No, multiplication and division are resolved from left to right in the same step. But implicit multiplication (
xy, as opposed tox*y) happens first."implicit multiplication" isn't even a real thing in Maths, and isn't even multiplication to begin with - people use that umbrella term to either mean The Distributive Law - which is the first step is solving Brackets - or Terms, which are products, which is the result of a multiplication.
e.g. if a=2 and b=3, then...
axb=2x3 - 2 terms
ab=6 - 1 term
They can be done in either order, or even together, as long as you go left to right.
