Order of Operations:

\

To simplify the expression follow the order of operations: (PEMDAS).

\

1.   Evaluate the expressions inside the Parenthesis/Brackets (P).

\

2.   Evaluate Powers/Exponents (E).

\

3.    Multiply and/or Divide in order from left to right (MD).

\

4.    Add and/or Subtract in order from left to right (AS). \ \

\

A simple technique for remembering the order of operations is turned into phrase "Please Excuse My Dear Aunty Sally".\"\"

\

The expression is \"\".

\

= \"\"                    (Substitute \"\")

\

Simplify the expression using order of operations (PEMDAS)

\

Since there are no grouping symbols and powers,

\

First operation is Evaluate the expressions within the parentheses.

\

\"\"                  (Evaluate powers: \"\")

\

\"\"                           (Divide: \"\")\"\"

\

Next operation is multiplication.

\

\"\"                                 (Multiply: \"\")

\

Next operation is addition.

\

= 20                                        (Add: \"\")\"\"

\

The value of the expression is \"\".
