Answer:

PEMDAS is parenthesis, exponent, multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction

Explanation:

before anything, you have to check for anything in a parenthesis. If nothing check for any exponents. If nothing do multiplication, and then do all division (of course wherever necessary). After that, you do all of the addition, then subtraction. everything in this order

Answer:

Explanation:

PEMDAS is a set of rules which are followed while solving mathematical expressions. These rules start with Parentheses, and then operations are performed on the exponents or powers. Next, we perform operations on multiplication or division from left to right. Finally, operations on addition or subtraction are performed from left to right.
