Order of Operations - PEMDAS

Front

What does PEMDAS stand for?

Back

PEMDAS stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).

Front

What is the first step in the order of operations?

Back

The first step is to solve expressions inside Parentheses.

Front

True or False: Multiplication always comes before addition in the order of operations.

Back

True.

Front

In the expression 3 + 5 x 2, which operation do you perform first?

Back

You perform multiplication first, so 5 x 2 = 10, then add 3.

Front

What is the result of the expression (8 - 3) x 2 + 4?

Back

The result is 10. First, solve (8 - 3) = 5, then 5 x 2 = 10, and finally 10 + 4 = 14.

Front

What does the 'E' in PEMDAS represent?

Back

The 'E' stands for Exponents.

Front

In the expression 7 + (6 x 2) - 3, what do you solve first?

Back

You solve the expression inside the parentheses first, which is (6 x 2) = 12.

Front

What is the correct order of operations?

Back

The correct order is Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).

Front

If an expression has both multiplication and division, how do you determine which to perform first?

Back

You perform multiplication and division from left to right as they appear in the expression.

Front

In the expression 10 - 2 + 3, which operation do you perform first?

Back

You perform the operations from left to right, so you subtract first: 10 - 2 = 8, then add 3 to get 11.
