precedence rules.

Precedence Hierarchy

Precedence Operator

highest $*,/,\%$

$+,-,$ &$,|$

$==,!=,-($unary$)$

$=,/=,<,<=,>=,>$

and

lowest or$,$ xor

As an example, for the expression

a $+$ b $\%$ c $-$ d

the order of evaluation would be

$(($ a $+($ b $\%$ c $)^1)^2-$ d $)^3$

where the superscript numbers $($via added parenthesis$)$ denote the order of evaluation.

For the following expression given, show the order of evaluation.

x $*$ y $-$ z $+42$

Group of answer choices

$((($ x $*$ y $)^3-$ z $)^2+42)^1$

$((($ x $*$ y $)^2-($z $+42)^1)^3$

$(($ x $*$ y $)^1-$ z $+42)^2$

$((($ x $*$ y $)^1-$ z $)^2+42)^3$

$((($ x $*$ y $)^2-$ z $)^1+42)^3$
