Title:
  Implicit multiplication

Status in “gcalctool” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Implicit multiplication appears to have higher precedence than
  division:

  6/2(1+2) = 1

  However no other calculator does that - implicit multiplication should
  be the same precedence as division, so:

  6/2(1+2) = 6/2 * 3 = 3 * 3 = 9

  If using explicit multiplication, gcalctool is correct:

  6/2×(1+2) = 9
