Consider the following expression grammar. The seman­tic rules for expression calculation are stated next to each grammar production.

$$\eqalign{ & E \to number\,\,\,\,\,E.val = number.val \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,|E\,\,' + '\,\,E\,\,\,\,\,\,{E^{\left( 1 \right)}}.val = {E^{\left( 2 \right)}}.val + {E^{\left( 3 \right)}}.val \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,|\,E\,\,' \times '\,\,E\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{E^{\left( 1 \right)}}.val = {E^{\left( 2 \right)}}.val \times {E^{\left( 3 \right)}}.val \cr} $$

Assume the conflicts in the previous question are resolved and an LALR(1) parser is generated for parsing arithmetic expressions as per the given grammar. Consider an expression
3 × 2 + 1.
What precedence and associativity properties does the generated parser realize?

A
Equal precedence and left associativity; ex­pression is evaluated to 7
B
Equal precedence and right associativity; ex­pression is evaluated to 9
C
Precedence of $$' \times '$$ is higher than that of ‘+’, and both operators are left associative; expression is evaluated to 7
D
Precedence of ‘+’ is higher than that of $$' \times '$$, and both operators are left associative; expression is evaluated to 9
