Simplify a large numeric expression by applying the order of operations

The video tutorial explains the importance of the order of operations in mathematics, commonly remembered by the acronym PEMDAS. It details each component: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction, emphasizing the left-to-right rule for operations of the same rank. The tutorial provides a step-by-step demonstration of solving an expression using these rules, highlighting the simplification process and the importance of correctly applying the order of operations to achieve the correct result.

What does the 'P' in PEMDAS stand for?

• Proportions

• Products

• Parentheses

• Powers

When simplifying an expression, which operation should be performed first?

• Addition

• Subtraction

• Multiplication

• Operations inside Parentheses
