      It’s common convention in mathematics to do implied multiplication before explicit ones… but this question is a troll so let’s not get trolled

      It's an easy mistake to make, I've added what I think are the main reasons people get it wrong. I'm definitely guilty of seeing everything to the right of a division sign as part of the denominator of a fraction of I don't focus.

        You're too modest! You got it right. 2 correct answers. It’s also 1 which is what I got. The problem is in the way it's written.
