How to simplify an expression using PEMDAS with Brackets

The video tutorial explains how to evaluate mathematical expressions using the order of operations, often remembered by the acronym PEMDAS (Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally). It emphasizes the importance of performing operations inside parentheses first, followed by exponents, and then multiplication and division from left to right. Addition and subtraction are also performed from left to right. The tutorial includes a step-by-step example problem to illustrate these concepts and concludes with reminders about the reverse order of operations used in solving equations.
