Answer explanation

Remember the order of operations. Grouping symbols always go first! Then, multiplication and division (left to right) are priority over addition and subtraction (left to right).

Imagine math problems are like a race - but not everyone starts running at the same time! First, multiplication and division are the speedy runners. They always go first - but they take turns left to right, just like reading a sentence.

Then come addition and subtraction, the steady joggers. They also go left to right, but only after multiplication and division finish their part of the race!
