How about this?

2+3*5/7

= 2*3/5%7 (operators changed according to the given rules)

= 2/3%5%7 (operators changed according to the given rules)

= 2%3%5%7 (operators changed according to the given rules)

= ((2%3)%5)%7

= (2%5)%7

= 2%7 = 2

RE: + means * and * means / and / means % what ...

I think answer is 6 . Below is my explanation

step 1 - 2 * 3 / 5 % 7

step 2 - 2 * 3 / 1 as ( 5 % 7 = 1)

step 3 - 2 * 3 (as 3 /1 = 3)

step 4 - 6 (as 2 * 3 = 6)

The precedense order is % / * if i am not wrong
