"Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition and Subtraction."

Therefore multiplication and division are equal.

Does division distribute over addition?

I assume you mean the 'Order of Operations' which are: 1 Brackets 2 Exponents (Powers and Roots) 3 Multiplication and Division 4 Addition and Subtraction Therefore, division will be done before addition.


Which shows the correct order of operations?

It is BIDMAS (UK) or PEMDAS (US). Not sure about other countries.BIDMAS = Brackets, Index, Division or Multiplication, Addition or Subtraction.PEMDAS = Parentheses, Exponent, Multiplication or Division, Addition or Subtraction.


What are rules telling in what order to do operations?

"PEMDAS" P- Parentheses E- Exponents M- Multiplication D- Division A- Addition S- Subtraction Note: multiplication and division are interchangeable. addition and subtraction are also interchangeable. parentheses THEN must stay the same, though.


Does the order in which you perform operations in a numerical expression matter?

Yes, unless all of the operations are additions, or all of them are multiplication. Otherwise, changing the order will change the result. The order of operations is determined by parentheses, or if none are present, by the PEDMAS sequence.The order in which mathematical operations must be done has the acronym PEDMAS or PEMDAS. PEDMAS or PEMDAS, no matter how you spell it, gives the correct order for mathematical operations: 1. P - Parentheses, 2. E - Exponents, MD - Multiplication and Division, AS - Addition and Subtraction.


What order of operations equal 29?

To get a result of 29 using the order of operations, you would need to perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in the correct sequence. One way to achieve this is by starting with the expression: ( (6 \times 5) - 1 + (9 \div 3) = 29 ). This follows the order of operations (parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division from left to right, addition and subtraction from left to right) to reach the desired result of 29.
