When more than one arithmetic operator is included in an expression, then multiplication, division, and modulus operations always occur before addition or subtraction?

If there are multiple operations at the same level on the order of operations, move from left to right. you work like this: First notice that, there are no Parentheses or Exponents, so wemove to Multiplication and Division. There'sonly the one multiplication, so we do that first and end up with 9 - 5 + 2.
