operator precedence defines the order in which operators are evaluated, If there are multiple operators of same precedence, the evaluation is done on the basis of their associativity. This is generally same as what you would find in traditional maths ( following the BODMAS rule for precedence ) but languages are free to alter them according to their needs ( although there are only a few exceptions where they actually do that ), so it's preferred to actually look up a reliable docs of the language you are using to know the right precedence and associativity. for example (C++) : https://en.cppreference.com/book/operator_precedence

Here is what BODMAS stands for: B--> Brackets O--> Order of powers or roots D--> Division M--> Multiplication A--> Addition S--> Substraction
