In mathematics and computer programming the order of operations or operator precedence is a collection of rules that reflect conventions about which procedures to perform first in order to evaluate a given mathematical expression. 4 3 4 2 6 3 2. After you have done P and E just go from left to right doing any M or D as you find them.
This is the order in which operations are applied to solve more complex math problems that have multiple terms and multiple operations.
Add and Subtract rank equally and go left to right So do it this way. All exponents are simple squares or cubes of single digit numbers. Very hard order of operations problems. 10 4 - 2 4² 4 2 12 9 10 4 - 2 16 4 2 12 9 10 4 - 2 4 2 12 9 10 4 - 8 2 12 9 10 4 - 4 12 9 10 4 - 8 9 40 - 8 9 32 9 41.
