DynamicMultiply First: Order of Operations
A first look at the order of operations: multiply before you add or subtract, as in 3 + 2 × 4.
DynamicNested Brackets: Square and Round
Brackets inside brackets: work from the inside out, as in [(2 + 3) × 4 − 6] ÷ 2.
DynamicOrder of Operations with Squares and Cubes
Powers come before × and ÷: 3² + 4 × 5, (8 − 5)³ − 7.
DynamicBrackets and Several Operations
Longer problems with brackets and three or four operations: (2 + 3) × 4 − 6 ÷ 2.
DynamicOrder of Operations: × and ÷ Before + and −
Multiply and divide before you add and subtract: 20 − 12 ÷ 4, 3 × 6 + 2 × 5.
DynamicPut in the Brackets
Where do the brackets go? 2 + 3 × 4 = 20 is right only as (2 + 3) × 4.
DynamicBrackets First: Numbers to 50
Work out the brackets first: (3 + 5) × 4, 20 − (8 − 2), 30 ÷ (2 + 4).
DynamicBrackets First: Numbers to 100
Problems with one pair of brackets and numbers up to 100: (12 − 4) × 6, 72 ÷ (3 + 6).
DynamicNumber the Steps: Order of Operations
Write 1, 2, 3 over the signs in the order you work them out, then find the answer.
DynamicPut in the Brackets: Longer Problems
Find where the brackets go in problems with three or four operations.
DynamicDo Brackets Change the Answer?
Compare the same problem with and without brackets: 2 + 3 × 4 ▢ (2 + 3) × 4.
