Order of operations example | Arithmetic properties | Pre-Algebra | Khan Academy

Work through a challenging order of operations example with only positive numbers.

Pre-Algebra on Khan Academy: No way, this isn't your run of the mill arithmetic. This is Pre-algebra. You're about to play with the professionals. Think of pre-algebra as a runway. You're the airplane and algebra is your sunny vacation destination. Without the runway you're not going anywhere. Seriously, the foundation for all higher mathematics is laid with many of the concepts that we will introduce to you here: negative numbers, absolute value, factors, multiples, decimals, and fractions to name a few. So buckle up and move your seat into the upright position. We're about to take off!

About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

THANK YOU! ! ! ! !! You have saved me HOURS of trying and NOT getting this math. *SMILES*

[picklesandmayonnaise-dl]

I really want to thank you for making these videos. I'm doing my GED and you teach much better than any of my "teachers" ever did. I look forward to getting a high score.

Thank you.

[oortizchris]

he rally helped me out with this video with out it I would have failed math class

[jessicaamoore]

I thought addition came before subtraction. Also, how do you know where to put parentheses when there are none in the equation already?

[alyssakalman]

dude its bed mass parentheses is called brackets so its
Brackets
Exponents
Division
Multiplication
Addition
Subtraction
(Sums)

[DeafMutedBeauty]

That was so easy...Yay! I get it now! :D

24 12=



this looks like to hard

[karensmith]

Thank you so much...The light bulb went on :)

I did a test in which i followed the BEDMAS procedure to calculate an equation inside the brackets, however my teacher said i was wrong and told me that an equation within a bracket will always go from left to is my teacher an idiot????

[Priyojit-animation]

No remember v-bodmas rule first bar then bracket, of,division, multiplication, addition, subtraction

[xsxseef]

after solving this(6+5) does the bracket remains there? (11)

[booksandvideos]

[Gaby_Mukbang]

PEMDAS. read about it
