Order of Math operations is

  1. Parentheses
  2. Exponents
  3. Multiplication and Division (from left to right)
  4. Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)

 

So the answer would be.  1

It is an issue of ambiguity.  Two ways to resolve it: either by convention (or conventions coded by formal grammar, which is what compilers do; or by add parentheses.

When there is a fight, it is an issue of disagreeing with others' conventions. Not a big deal, since conventions don't help produce knowledge.
