That’s wrong. Multiplication and division have equal precedence, same as addition and subtraction. You do them left to right. PEMDAS could be rewritten like PE(MD)(AS). After parentheses and exponents, it"s Multiplication and division together, then addition and subtraction together. They also teach BODMAS some places, which is “brackets, order, division and multiplication, addition and subtraction” Despite reversing the division and multiplication, it doesn’t change the order of operations. They have the same priority, so they are just done left to right. PEMDAS and BODMAS are the different shorthand for the same order of operations.
There’s an argument to be made that implicit multiplication comes before division, resulting in the answer 1, but all multiplication? That’s wrong, full-stop. You calculate (explicit) multiplication and division in one step, left to right. Reason being that division is technically just multiplying by the reciprocal.

8 / 2 (4)

No. Order of operations is left to right, not right to left. 1 is wrong.
Order of operations is BEDMAS, THEN left to right within each operator.
1 is the only correct answer.
Pemdas.
Multiplication comes before division.
1 is the correct answer.
1 is the correct answer, but it’s because Brackets comes before Division - there is no Multiplication in this problem.

There’s no such thing as implicit multiplication.
