Could I ask three questions, please?
(1)When we wanna say "6*6=12" in English, we say "Six times six equals thirty-six."
I know that "equal" is a verb here. Then how about "times" here?
Is it a preposition or anything else?
(2)When I wanna say "2+6-3=5" in English, is "Two plus six minus three equals five." correct?
(3)And how do we say "6+8-3*6/2=5" in English? "Six plus eight minus three times six divided by two equals five."???
Thank you so much.

First, please try to write in proper English here. 'Wanna' is not a word; it is merely a transcription of native pronunciation.

1. Yes, 'times' is classified as a preposition.
2. Yes, but you missed 'wanna': I don't think you took my advice very seriously.
3. Yes.
