2. Each letter
Each letter of PEMDAS has a meaning P is for Parentheses E is for Exponents M is for Multiplication D is for Division A is for Addition S is for Subtraction

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

4. Exponents
Next 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

5. Multiplication
Third, 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

6. 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

7. 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 = 13

8. Subtraction
Next you subtract. Remember, it doesn’t need to be after addition. 8 – 5 = 3

9. How to do it 5(10+5)/(26–23)+3 5*15/3+3 75/3+3 25+3 28
First solve the parentheses.
Next multiply
Now divide
Finally, add
And you have your answer!

10. Now you try! Try to do these problems on your own 12(3+4)-8/2 80
8/(6-2)+6(8+4)-37
4(3+6)-2(6-7)/-2 80 71 35
