Order of Operations

Front

What is the Order of Operations?

Back

A set of rules that determines the correct sequence to evaluate a mathematical expression. The order is Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).

Front

What is the first step in the Order of Operations?

Back

Evaluate expressions inside Parentheses.

Front

What is the second step in the Order of Operations?

Back

Evaluate Exponents.

Front

What comes after Exponents in the Order of Operations?

Back

Perform Multiplication and Division from left to right.

Front

What is the last step in the Order of Operations?

Back

Perform Addition and Subtraction from left to right.

Front

Solve: 3 + 4 x 6 - 4 = ?

Back

18 (First multiply 4 x 6 = 24, then 3 + 24 - 4 = 23)

Front

Solve: (7 + 41) ÷ 2 – 15 = ?

Back

9 (First add 7 + 41 = 48, then divide 48 ÷ 2 = 24, and finally 24 - 15 = 9)

Front

Solve: 7 x (7 - 4) ÷ 3 = ?

Back

7 (First calculate inside the parentheses 7 - 4 = 3, then 7 x 3 = 21, and finally 21 ÷ 3 = 7)

Front

Solve: 18 + 2 x 4 = ?

Back

26 (First multiply 2 x 4 = 8, then 18 + 8 = 26)

Front

Solve: 10 + 45 ÷ 9 - (14 ÷ 2) = ?

Back

8 (First divide 45 ÷ 9 = 5, then divide 14 ÷ 2 = 7, then 10 + 5 - 7 = 8)
