Question

Consider the expression 3 * 2 ^ 2 < 16 + 5 andalso 100 / 10 * 2 > 15 - 3. which operation is performed second

Answer 1

3 * 2 ^ 2 < 16 + 5
should be performed in the order PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)/
Therefore, obtain
3 * 2 ^ 2 < 16 + 5
3 * 4 < 16 + 5           Exponentiation first
12 < 16 + 5               Multiplication second

Similarly, obtain
100 / 10 * 2 > 15 - 3
100 / 20 > 15 - 3      Multip[lication first
5 > 15 - 3                  Division second
