Order of Operations:
\To simplify the expression follow the order of operations: (PEMDAS)
\1. Evaluate the expressions inside Brackets/Parenthesis (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 ![\"\"](\"/test/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=5a96d13fb48cffe66a13c4eb2d776477.png\")
.
\
In the given expression there are no grouping symbols.
\ First operation is evaluating power \![\"\"](\"/test/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=e011c56ff1bb002a5b89c670b230b4c9.png\")
(Evaluate power: ![\"\"](\"/test/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=6d5c2661b4cc3d9c19ec5bf01872a9d8.png\")
)
\
Next operation is subtraction.

(Subtract: ![\"\"](\"/test/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=81c2de283b1b8cfdc886724c5fa3c90a.png\")
)![\"\"](\"http://www.mathskey.com/userfiles/image/steps_images/solution.JPG\")
The value of expression is ![\"\"](\"/test/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=581729083358c184bc77bb844b0084ee.png\")
