Question

Evaluate the following expression as per Java priority & associativity.

6 * 2 / 4

Answer 1

Priority (Precedence): Both multiplication (*) and division (/) have the same precedence level in Java.

Associativity: Since their precedence is equal, Java evaluates them from left to right.

• First, evaluate the left-most operation: 6 * 2 = 12
• Next, evaluate the remaining operation: 12 / 4 = 3
