A simple way to remember the order is "BODMAS." 'Brackets', 'other', 'division', 'multiplication', 'addition' and 'subtraction'. (Other refers to powers and indices)


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.
