Work one operation at a time. Inside brackets first, the innermost pair before the outer one. A fraction bar groups its top and its bottom like brackets.
Common questions
- What is the order of operations?
- Brackets, exponents, multiplication and division, then addition and subtraction. Multiplication and division go left to right, and so do addition and subtraction.
- Is it PEMDAS or BODMAS?
- Both name the same order. P and B are brackets; E and O are exponents.
