removing brackets around constants and bracketed terms leaves this expression: (( (   788 * 8.46   )+8342*1.803-1 )*4186.4* 15 )*( (22 % 284/( 7530/( 2 *(    25  -421  )) )*597 % 2663)+7283.8-9.60+167.8644 % 3   )+ 8871
And that reveals that some of the modulo operations are NOT guarded by brackets; i.e. the language's operator preference decides in which order the operands are computed. 

E.g. 1 / 2 % 3 may be (1/2) % 3 or 1 / (2%3)
similar multiplication:
1 * 2 % 3 can be (1*2) % 3 or 1 * (2%3)

That could explain some of the differences.
