Answer:

False

Explanation:

The given statement: 'the order in which you perform operations in a numerical expression does not matter' is absolutely false.

The order or sequence in which a mathematical expression is solved does matter a lot. Performing mathematical operations in a different manner will result in different results.

The rule for performing mathematical operation states that a numerical expression should be solved in the following manner:

1. Brackets

2. Of

3. Division

4. Multiplication

5. Addition

6. Subtraction
