Answer:

its hard to explain as a simple answer but i can explain w an example

Explanation:

lets say the equation is 2 (3×5), rather than using pemdas and doing 3×5 fist, you take the 2 amd multiply it by the numbers in the paranthesis, so, do that snd u get 2×3 which equals 6 and then u do 2×5 which equals 10 so the equation in the end should be 6+10 which equals 16, and obviously if u use pemdas u would gey a different answer (the answer if u use pemdas is 30)
