How is that correct? - Python learning track syllabus

[pantig]

Hello,

I have recently started my learning path on python track in exercism. In the syllabus topic about numbers I cannot understand how both represented results are correct.

Numbers in Python on Exercism

(2 + 3) * 4
20

and

(2 + 3 - 4) * 4
20

For me the second one should give value of 4. Maybe I dont understand math behind it, so please explain it to me. Or its just a mistake in syllabus.

You can verify whether this is a mistake by trying it in the Python REPL.
