The problem is not order of operations. The problem is the way math is written using ÷ for division and x for multiplication. These symbols are childish mathematical symbols used for grade school education. Serious math equations will never run into this confusion because division is written 8 / 2(2+2) and everyone will know that before dividing the denominator into 8, the denominator must be fully simplified. 8 / 2(2+2) = 8/2(4) = 8/8 = 1.

If the equation is meant to equal 16, it would then be written (8/2)(2+2) keeping out all elementary school division and multiplication symbols, retaining the exact numbers in the same order, and making it easy to know how to simplify the problem. The steps for that one would be (8/2)(2+2) = (4)(4) = 16.

8/2 is the same thing as 8*0.5

1/2 is 0.5 in fractional form. So yes, Multiplication has the same priority as division as you can rewrite fractions as divisions and vice versa.

[Anonymous No.17353982]

>>17353894
They have the same priority. Just as addition and subtraction have the same priority too.

It's because these operations are just the inverse of each other... it wouldn't make sense for them to have different priorities.

while that's a nice way to remember the order of operations, there's no precedence between multiplication and division, nor between addition and subtraction, and thus after applying the parentheses, the remaining division and multiplication are applied left-to-right:
