Order of Operations-3rd Grade

Front

What does the Order of Operations mean?

Back

The Order of Operations is a set of rules that tells us the correct sequence to evaluate a mathematical expression. It is often remembered by the acronym PEMDAS: 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 anything inside Parentheses.

What does PEMDAS stand for?

Back

PEMDAS stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction.

Front

Solve this expression: 5 + 2 x 3

Back

First, multiply: 2 x 3 = 6. Then add: 5 + 6 = 11.

Front

What operation should be done first in the expression: (8 - 2) + 4?

Back

First, solve the operation inside the Parentheses: 8 - 2 = 6.

Front

What is the result of the expression: 3 + 4 x 2?

Back

First, multiply: 4 x 2 = 8. Then add: 3 + 8 = 11.

Front

Back

First, solve inside the parentheses: 2 + 3 = 5. Then multiply: 4 x 5 = 20.

Front

In the expression 10 - 3 + 3 x 5, which operation do you perform first?

Back

You perform the subtraction first: 10 - 3 = 7.

Front

What is the answer to the equation: 6 + 2 x 3 - 4?

Back

First, multiply: 2 x 3 = 6. Then add and subtract from left to right: 6 + 6 - 4 = 8.

If you have 3 friends and each friend has 2 bags with 3 shirts in each bag, how many shirts are there in total?

Back

3 friends x 2 bags x 3 shirts = 18 shirts.
