Each letter

Each letter of PEMDAS has a meaningP is for ParenthesisE is for ExponentsM is for MultiplicationD is for DivisionA is for AdditionS is for Subtraction

First you need to get rid of the parenthesis in an equation. To do this you either: Use distributive property: 6(4 x X) = 24 x 6Xor Solve the equation inside of the parenthesis.(5 + 2) = 7

Parenthesis

EXPONENTSNext you need to solve your exponents. Do this by multiplying the base number y itself the number of times that the exponent is.

5 = 5 x 5 x 5 = 25 x 5 = 125

3

MultiplicationThird, you have to multiply. However, division can also go first. It is a matter of which one is closest to the right of an equation. Just multiply the numbers to get the answer.

5 x 5 = 25

Division

Next you have to divide. However, it does not need to be after multiplication. If there is a multiply sign and a division sign, the first one on the right is the problem you do first.

35 / 7 = 5

Addition

Next you need to add. However, with addition and subtraction it is the same deal with multiplication and division. Whichever one comes first, is the one you do first.

3 + 10 = 13

Next you subtract. Remember, it doesn’t need to be after addition.

8 – 5 = 3

Subtraction

How to do it

5(10+5)/(26–23)+35*15/3+375/3+325+328

First solve the parentheses.Next multiplyNow divideFinally, addAnd you have your answer!

Try to do these problems on your own12(3+4)-8/2

8/(6-2)+6(8+4)-37

4(3+6)-2(6-7)/-2

Now you try!

And now you know Pemdas!!
