Order of evaluation of a simple term

35 Views Asked by At

If, for example, $a=14$, $b=2$ and $c=7$ and I'm working to (say) three decimal places, should I evaluate the term$$a\frac{b}{c},$$

in the order $$a\left(\frac{b}{c}\right)$$

or$$\frac{\left(ab\right)}{c}.$$

Or should I just say that the original term is inherently ambiguous?
