PEMDAS Order of Operations:
Parentheses → Exponents → Multiplication & Division → Addition & Subtraction
From: | To: |
PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, Addition and Subtraction) is the standard order for evaluating mathematical expressions to ensure consistent results.
The calculator follows the PEMDAS order:
1. Parentheses first
2. Exponents (powers and roots)
3. Multiplication and Division (left to right)
4. Addition and Subtraction (left to right)
Details: Following the correct order of operations ensures mathematical expressions are evaluated consistently and accurately across different calculations and calculators.
Tips: Enter a valid mathematical expression using numbers and operators (+, -, *, /). Use parentheses to group operations. Example: 2*(3+4)-5/2
Q1: Why is PEMDAS important?
A: It provides a standardized way to interpret mathematical expressions, preventing ambiguity and ensuring consistent results.
Q2: What does PEMDAS stand for?
A: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, Addition and Subtraction.
Q3: Are multiplication and division equal priority?
A: Yes, they have equal priority and are evaluated from left to right.
Q4: Are addition and subtraction equal priority?
A: Yes, they have equal priority and are evaluated from left to right.
Q5: What about other operations like modulus or roots?
A: Modulus has the same priority as multiplication/division. Roots are treated as exponents.
