The rules of precedence determine the order in which expressions are evaluated and calculated
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
The statement is true because the rules of precedence in mathematics dictate the order in which operations are performed in an expression. This ensures that calculations are done correctly and consistently. For example, in the expression 2 + 3 * 4, the multiplication is done first according to the rules of precedence, resulting in 2 + 12, which equals 14. Without these rules, calculations would not have a standardized order, leading to ambiguity and incorrect results.Rate this question:

- C.
Comparison conditions
- D.
BETWEEN operator
Correct Answer
A. Arithmetic operatorsExplanation
Arithmetic operators will be evaluated first based on the rule of precedence. This is because arithmetic operators have a higher precedence than concatenation operators, comparison conditions, and the BETWEEN operator. This means that any arithmetic operations in an expression will be performed before any concatenation, comparison, or BETWEEN operations.Rate this question:
-
- 27.
Which of the following will be evaluated first based on the rule of precedence?
- A.
NOT logical condition
- B.
AND logical condition
- C.
