Carry out multiplication and division stages before the addition and subtraction stages. Also most important: to check to see whether the answer is reasonable? Personally I never used BODMAS or other"words" which were supposed to tell you how to proceed. My method was to be logical.

Does the order you perform operations in numerical expression matter?

Yes, the order in which you perform operations in a numerical expression does matter due to the rules of operator precedence. According to these rules, operations are performed in a specific order: parentheses first, followed by exponents, then multiplication and division from left to right, and finally addition and subtraction from left to right. Failing to follow this order can lead to different results for the same expression. Therefore, it is crucial to adhere to these rules to ensure accurate calculations.
