Order of Operations — Fiche d'exercices de Grade 6 Math
The order of operations is the set of rules that makes everyone evaluate an expression the same way. The acronym PEMDAS stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), then Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).
Parentheses come first because they mark a part of the expression that must be treated as a single value. In , you add inside the parentheses before multiplying, so the value is , not .
Exponents are evaluated right after parentheses and before multiplying or dividing: in , square the first to get . Multiplication and division share the same rank, and so do addition and subtraction, so within each pair you simply work from left to right.
Nested expressions place one set of grouping symbols inside another, such as . Work from the innermost group outward, one layer at a time, and rewrite the expression after each step so you can track your work.
