In the meme example you wouldn’t, but if you were trying to figure out Something like 2% of 5, it’s easier to do (2 * 5)/100=0.1 then to do .02 * 5 or .05 * 2.
My comment was mainly pointing out that you can multiply those numbers in whatever order you want.
You could also do 6*50 and then divide by 100.
Why would I do that

Yeah, that’s just more math
6*50 = 3*100 = 300
300/100 = 3

50*0.06 = Ain’t nobody got time for that

6 * 0.5 = 6 / 2 = 3
