Which calculator would do what you described? I just checked a few ones and didn't find any. I'd be surprised a lot, to be honest, because that'd be wrong and I probably would've gotten a very wrong result at some point because I rely on calculators having implemented the correct order of operations. Every school or university teaches that multiplication and division have the same precedence (modulo may or may not be on the same level, mostly depending on the notation) and are calculated from the left to the right. So 8*10^12/6*10^9 = 8*(10^12)/6*(10^9) = ((8*(10^12))/6)*(10^9)
