Operator precedences are shown in the following list, from lowest precedence to the highest. Operators that are shown together on a line have the same precedence.
:= ||, OR, XOR &&, AND NOT BETWEEN, CASE, WHEN, THEN, ELSE =, <=>, >=, >, <=, <, <>, !=, IS, LIKE, REGEXP, IN | & <<, >> -, + *, /, DIV, %, MOD ^ - (unary minus), ~ (unary bit inversion) ! BINARY, COLLATE
Note: If the
HIGH_NOT_PRECEDENCE SQL mode is enabled, the
precedence of NOT is the same as that of the
! operator. See
Section 5.2.6, “SQL Modes”.
The precedence of operators determines the order of evaluation of terms in an expression. To override this order and group terms explicitly, use parentheses. For example:
mysql>SELECT 1+2*3;-> 7 mysql>SELECT (1+2)*3;-> 9

Also note that if you are using both math and logical operators you should use both logical and mathematical operators in their order of precedence for the command to function correctly.
