Front

What does PEMDAS stand for?

Back

PEMDAS stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction. It is the order of operations used to solve mathematical expressions.

Front

What is the first step in solving 15 + 7 × 2 – 11 + 35?

Back

The first step is to perform the multiplication: 7 × 2 = 14.

Front

What is the result of 12 ÷ 3 x 4?

Back

The result is 16. First, divide 12 by 3 to get 4, then multiply by 4.

Front

In the expression (82 ÷ 2) × 3 – 17, what operation do you perform first?

Back

You perform the division first: 82 ÷ 2 = 41.

Front

What is the final answer for 91 + 27 ÷ (72 ÷ 24)?

Back

The final answer is 100. First, calculate 72 ÷ 24 = 3, then 27 ÷ 3 = 9, and finally 91 + 9 = 100.

Front

What does the 'M' in PEMDAS represent?

Back

The 'M' in PEMDAS stands for Multiplication.

Front

What is the order of operations?

Back

The order of operations is the sequence in which you should perform mathematical operations: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).

Front

Solve: 8 + 2 × 5 – 3.

Back

The answer is 17. First, multiply 2 × 5 = 10, then add 8 + 10 = 18, and finally subtract 3 to get 17.

Front

What is the result of 5 + (3 × 2)?

Back

The result is 11. First, calculate the expression in parentheses: 3 × 2 = 6, then add 5 + 6 = 11.

Front

What is the first operation to perform in 4 × (6 + 2)?

Back

The first operation is to calculate the expression in parentheses: 6 + 2 = 8.
