Order of Operations and Basic Arithmetic

The video tutorial explains the order of operations using the PEMDAS strategy, which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), and Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). It demonstrates solving problems with different grouping symbols: parentheses, brackets, and braces. Each section involves solving operations step-by-step, starting from the innermost grouping symbol and working outward, ensuring all operations are performed in the correct order to achieve the final result.
