I am more impressed that people know about divisibility. What’s next, random people knowing about ideals?

Always has been.

Just wait for the annual “PEDMAS vs PEMDAS” discussion flame-war on any major social media platform.

“Pedmas” sounds like a holiday for pedophiles…

End of debate.

Why? Not sure what the debate is, if you divide/multiply first?

It can matter if you don’t have enough significant figures, so I tend to do division last to preserve as much precision as I can. In theory it shouldn’t matter, but it can matter in practice.
