1. In the question

1/2B X (1/2A + 1/2C)

Where B and A and C are all vectors what would I do first.

I know first the brackets, 1/2A + 1/2C = another vector

now do I do 1/2*B then cross the answer with the vector. OR do I cross B with the vector then multiply the answer by the scalar 1/2?

THANKS
