Order of Operations (basic)

ORDER OF OPERATIONS is also known as:

• EPMDAS

• PEMDAS

• EPDMSA

• DEMPAS

The first step in the Order of Operations process is:

• to solve in Parentheses

• to solve Multiplication or Division

• to solve Exponents

• to solve Addition or Subtraction

The second step in Order of Operations is:

• To solve what is in parentheses

• to solve multiplication or division

• to solve Exponents

• to solve addition or subtraction

The third step in Order of Operations is:

• To solve what is in parentheses

• to solve multiplication or division

• to solve Exponents

• to solve addition or subtraction

What do you do if there are NO parentheses?

• Add or subtract left to right

• Multiply or Divide left to right

• Solve Exponents left to right

• Solve the whole problem at one time

What is the LAST step in the Order of Operations?

• to solve what's in parentheses

• to solve multiplication and division

• To solve Exponents

• to solve addition and subtraction
