Understanding the order of operations is crucial for accurately solving math problems with multiple operations. This guide simplifies the PEMDAS acronym, which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), and Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). By following these steps, you'll learn how to tackle complex equations effectively. From handling parentheses to working through exponents and performing operations in the correct order, you'll become proficient in managing math problems. Practice examples are provided for clarity.

ORDER OF OPERATIONS How to do a math problem with more than one operation in the correct order.
PEMDAS • Remember the order by the phrase • Please • Excuse • My Dear • Aunt Sally
The “P” and “E” • The “P” stands for items in parenthesis • Do all items in the parenthesis first (2 + 3) The “E” stands for Exponents Do anything that has a exponent (power) 82
The “MD” • Represents Multiply and Divide • Do which ever one of these comes first in the problem Work these two operations from left to right
The “AS” • Represents Add and Subtract • Do which ever one of these comes first • Work left to right 8 + 7 - 5 + 2
