\

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
