  Doesn’t help much if I don’t KNOW what needs to be done separately.

    PEMDAS

    parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction.

    That’s how I remember it.

      I learned BOMDAS

      brackets, of, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction

      The next year I learned BODMAS instead, which was initially confusing but introduced the idea that the exact order can be a bit variable, as long as you do the multiplication/division bits first.

        I vaguely remember BIDMAS, but my brain wasn’t braining that day, so I don’t really remember it

        See, I learned Bomdas first, then was informed it was wrong and to use PEMDAS. I have no idea which one is the correct one anymore.
