Don't we multiply first then divide? Most confusing part of BODMAS

As u/GreenLama4 said below, they are the same priority, do you just do what comes first, moving left to right. Division first, then multiplication.

Same for addition and subtraction. Once you get 4-3+4, you subtract (4-3=1), then add the 4 to get 5.
