Use EMDAS and brackets as such and evaluate left to right (8*7)+(8%5)+(6/2) = 56+3+3 = 62..

Or you could actually execute the snippet in C# and see what it outputs.

You can just put your expression in the Console.WriteLine method like so:

Console.WriteLine(8 * 7 + 8 % 5 + 6 / 2);

Run it and check the output.

Alternatively, you may check the operator precedence here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/operators/
