"A common mistake is to think division is prioritised above multiplication"
That is what I said. I said it's a mistake to think one of them has a precedence over the other. You're arguing the same point I'm making?
And I said it's not a mistake. You still get the right answer.
No, I'm telling you that prioritising either isn't a mistake. Mistakes give wrong answers. Prioritising either doesn't give wrong answers.
