    This is because of the order of operations:

    Parentheses

    Exponent

    Divide

    Multiply

    Add

    Subtract

    Note that parentheses are the first, so it will affect everything after it.

    Examples:

    2 (5+4) = 2x9 = 18

    (2x5) + 4 = 10+4 = 14

    5 / (2+3) = 5/5 = 1

    (5/2) + 3 = 2.5+3 = 5.5

    (4 + 2) / 36 = 1/6

    4 + 2/36 = 4 + 1/18 = 72/18 + 1/18 = 73/18

    (5 - 3) / 4 = 1/4

    5 - 3/4 = 20/4 - 3/4 = 17/4
