Learning Objective: Using order of operations to solve expressions.
Order of Operations Evaluate the following using order of operations:
BODMAS is an acronym and it stands for Bracket,
Order, Multiplication and Subtraction.
It explains the order of operations to be performed
while solving an expression.
• Complete brackets first.
Note: The “O” in the BODMAS is also called “Order”, • Do multiplication and division
which refers to the numbers which involve powers, next, working from left to right.
square roots, etc. • Do addition and subtraction last,
working from left to right
Write the appropriate numerical expression to represent each statement below.
Half of the difference Product of three and One third of the
between eight and two the sum of four and sum of twenty six
six and ten
7⁵ ÷ 7³ = 9⁷÷÷7³
7⁵ 9²== 8⁶÷÷7³8³= =
7⁵
Use the order of operations to solve the following expressions
12 ÷ 2 + 3 x 11 – 20 17 – 36 ÷ 6 + 5 x 12 11 + 12 x 5 – 11

=3 = 30 = 12
Use the order of operations to solve the following expressions
12 ÷ 2 + 3 x 11 – 20 17 – 36 ÷ 6 + 5 x 12 11 + 12 x 5 – 11
12 ÷ 2 + 3 x 11 – 20 17 – 36 ÷ 6 + 5 x 12 11 + 12 x 5 – 11
12 ÷ 2 + 3 x 11 – 20 = 17 – 36 ÷ 6 + 5 x 12 = 11 + 12 x 5 – 11
= 6 + 33 – 20 = 17 – 6 + 60 = 11 + 60 – 11
= 19 = 71 = 60
4 + 8 – 14 ÷ 2 14 + 96 ÷ 8 x 3 – 5 6 + 12 – 4 x 4
4 + 8 – 14 ÷ 2 14 + 96 ÷ 8 x 3 – 5 6 + 12 – 4 x 4
= 4 + 8 – 14 ÷ 2 = 14 + 96 ÷ 8 x 3 – 5 = 6 + 12 – 4 x 4
=4+8–7 = 14 + 4 – 5 = 6 + 12 – 16
=5 = 13 =2
