This page from Sun's Java Tutorial contains a table that shows what the precedences is of the operators in Java.

Now look at your expression, look at each of the operators. Use the table to find out in which order the operators are executed.

Try to find the answer yourself - then you will learn much more then when someone just tells you the answer here.
