Let's recall what is the order of operations.
1. Do things in Parentheses First
2. Calculate Exponents, Powers and Roots
3. Multiply and divide
4. Finally, you can add or subtract.
For not forgetting the specific order, you should remember the acronym PEMDAS, as follows:
• Parentheses
,
• Exponents
,
• MD Multiply and divide
,
• AS Add and subtract.
