That's exactly where the calculators in the op differ. For more examples, Casio calculators do implicit multiplication first, while ti's treat it the same as explicit multiplication and division. I think that the latter is more predictable personally, but really you just need to know your calculator.

Casio calculators do implicit multiplication first

Actually they follow the actual rules of Maths - Terms and The Distributive Law.
