2) R1 on 2nd or R1 on 2nd, R2 on 1st- on hit to F7 who has play at 3rd- PU or BU- I have been told both

Maybe that's because the question is non-specific. Play on which runner at 3B?

Depends on whether there is a possible play at home. If there is, BU. If not, PU, but his/her priority is still the plate.

Is there a simple formula to follow like BU has all first plays on the infield and then the trail runners. I thought that Bu had all 1st plays on the infield if the ball is hit on the infield. If the ball is hit to the outfield who has the first play at 3rd? Thanks.

The simple formula is attend a clinic and school and read the umpire manual. Not being a smart ***, but his is part of being an umpire.
