Sure, here's an AP Computer Science Exam question for the given topic:

Question: Consider the following code snippet:

int x = 5;
int y = 3;
int z = x * y + 4 / 2;
System.out.println("z = " + z);

What is the value of z after the code snippet is executed? Show your work.

A) 16
B) 17
C) 20
D) 21
E) 22

Answer: The correct answer is C) 20.

Explanation: To determine the value of z, we need to follow the order of operations. First, we compute x * y, which is 5 * 3 = 15. Then, we move on to the addition and division operations. Since addition and division have the same precedence, we evaluate from left to right.

Next, we calculate 4 / 2, which is 2.

Finally, we add the result of x * y to the result of 4 / 2, giving us 15 + 2 = 17.

Therefore, the value of z is 17.

Therefore, the correct answer is C) 20.
