Question

Assertion (A): The result of the Java expression 3 + 7/2 is 6.

Reason (R): According to the hierarchy of operators in Java, addition is done first, followed by division.

विकल्प

• (A) is true and (R) is false.

• (A) is false and (R) is true.

• Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).

• Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

Answer 1

(A) is true and (R) is false.

Explanation:

Division has higher precedence than addition, so 7/2 is evaluated first. In Java, integer division 7/2 = 3; then 3 + 3 = 6. The reason’s claim that addition is done before division is incorrect.
