Trick quizz. But there still has to be an order (left to right in your example). In the programming language APL it would evaluate R-L (and equal 74).
I do find these internet memes a bit silly. Some people go on as if PEDMAS/BODMAS etc are mathematical axioms cast in stone, whereas they are generally agreed on conventions to enable equations to be written in a shorter form while remaining reasonably unambiguous.
But they don't cover all operations.
What does -52 equal + or - 25 ? (Different systems will give different answers)
How about 3^2^3, does it equal 93 or 38 ?
What is the precedence of other operators?
