In mathematical operations, addition, subtraction, and multiplication are governed by the order of operations, often remembered by the acronym PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)). When addition, subtraction, and multiplication are used in a problem, multiplication is performed first, followed by addition and subtraction, which are executed from left to right. Thus, in a sequence where these operations appear together, multiplication takes priority over addition and subtraction.
