PEMDAS:
P: Paranthes
E: Exponents
M:Multiplication
D:Division
A:Addition
S:Subtraction

So.... You Multiply 1.2*7.5 first which you get 9
If the divided by 4 part is like this
(1.2*7.5)-8
----------------
4
then you have to subtract 8 from 9 first than divide by 4
which is a 1/4 0.25

1.2x7.5= 9 - 8 = 1 divided by 4 = 0.25
