Chapter 1.4 McDougal Littell Middle School Math Course 1 Joseph Williams Melvin E. Sine Elementary Objective: Use the order of operations.
Vocabulary Numerical Expression – pg an expression, consisting of numbers and operations to be performed, that represents a particular value (a math problem with out an equal sign (=) Grouping Symbols – pg. 21 -symbols such as parentheses, brackets, or fraction bars that group parts of an expression.
Vocabulary Evaluate – pg to find the value of an expression (find the answer of the problem). Order of Operations – pg the order in which to perform operations when evaluating expressions with more than one operation.
Order of Operations 1.Evaluate expressions inside grouping symbols ( ) [ ] 2.Evaluate Powers Multiply and Divide from left to right x and ÷ 4.Add or Subtract from left to right + and -
Using the Order of Operations = 14 – 1014 – 2 x ÷ =
Powers and Grouping Symbols = (3 +1) x 5= 4 x 5
Multi Step Problems Your class is going to the zoo. It costs $16 for each adult and $9 for each student. There are 3 adults and 22 students. What is the total cost of admission? (3 x 16)+ (22 x 9) Cost for adultsCost for students = $246 It would cost $246 for your class to go to the zoo.
