The usual mathematical rules are where multiplication and then division takes place. If the division were the first action or was performed in parentheses, then it would have counted differently. So where is the problem?

So according to you is
11 / 30 * 100 = 0.00366666666667 OR 11 / 30 * 100 =36.6666666667 ?

6 / 3 * 2= 1 OR 6 / 3 * 2= 4 ?
Remember that in my example, there are no parentheses .

Multiplication and Division are at the same "level" (dividing by 3 is just multipying by 1/3) and go left to right. OP is correct.

If you’re going to be rude to someone, at least be correct.

You seem to have gone from arguing 0.367 is correct to proving that 36.67 is correct.

It is indeed 36.67 that is correct when there are no parentheses.

Our template parser/compiler literally adds the parentheses in the wrong place automatically. It compiles to 11 / (30 * 100) which is wrong.

We are looking into this but for various reasons we may need to defer it to much later or accept it as a quirk - there are similar quirks with compiling conditions without parentheses.

You can add the parentheses yourself though and that will workaround the issue for now.
