    No mathematician would write an ambiguous equation like that.

    People who argued over these are displaying an incorrect memory of a math education that is simply not a good look.

    Division and multiplication have the same precedence, equations are evaluated left to right, so equation is divide then multiple. Division and subtraction are syntactic sugar for multiplication and addition.

    These are fun little experiments showing how social media makes people more stupider and how proud the ignorant behave amongst themselves.

    Most lawn mowers can be fixed with a sort of hand grenade solution of replacing the entire carburetor. You can get typical purchase a preassembled carbs for a bit more than a rebuild kit. It’s usually two bolts, the throtlled connector and the gas line.

    This assumes you’re ruled out obvious things like the spark plug which is even cheaper and easier to replace or clogged gas line which is how I got my current lawn mower.

    Funny part there is it was my next door neighbor’s discarded lawn mower and they’ve asked to borrow it a couple times since.
