BODMAS is a mnenomic for helping remember the order for dealing with mathematical operators in a mathematic statement.
First - brackets, then order (powers), then division, multiplication, addition and finally subtraction.
Resolving an equation following this will give a different result than a random order. e.g. 3x1+4(8/2)=19 not 60 nor 28 nor anything else.

You need to use BODMAS whenever you evaluate ANY formula.
they are both the same except in bodmas the D has been switched around you can use both of them though it wouldn't ,take a difference
