Understanding Order of Operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS)
Order of Operations is a set of rules that dictate the sequence in which operations should be performed in a mathematical expression. PEMDAS/BODMAS is a common acronym that helps remember this order:
- Parentheses / Brackets: Operations inside parentheses or brackets are performed first.
- Exponents / Orders: Calculations involving exponents or orders (powers and square roots, etc.) are next.
- Multiplication and Division: These operations are performed from left to right.
- Addition and Subtraction: These operations are performed last, from left to right.
This tool helps you check if a given mathematical expression has been solved correctly by following these rules. Enter your expression and your proposed solution to see if it's correct and to view the step-by-step calculation.
