Order of Operations and BEDMAS

The video tutorial introduces the concept of order of operations in mathematics, commonly known as BEDMAS. It explains each component of BEDMAS: Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, and Subtraction. The tutorial provides two example problems, demonstrating how to apply BEDMAS to solve mathematical expressions step-by-step. The instructor emphasizes the importance of following the correct order to achieve accurate results.
