The order of operations in math is crucial for solving equations correctly. PEMDAS stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). This framework helps in structuring complex problems. It’s essential to remember that addition and subtraction should be treated with the same priority, akin to stop signs in operations. By breaking down larger problems into smaller, manageable terms, we can simplify our calculations effectively and ensure accuracy. Let’s clarify Aunt Sally’s misinformation and stick to the rules of PEMDAS!

Order of Operations PEMDAS
Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally • P • E • M • D • A • S • This is the order we do math operations!! Or is it?
Sally is a liar? • Example What does Sally say to do first? • What would the next line be if we listen to Sally?
Listening to Sally This is not correct!!!!!
Putting all the operations together!!! Treat Addition and Subtraction like stop signs in order of operation problems.
Breaking down large problems into smaller ones Each underlined item is a term The terms are simplified Simplify using PEMDAS Remember what we discussed about Aunt Sally
