Example: 4 + 7 × 2 = ?

Working strictly from left to right, thereby, not using the Order of Operations:

4 + 7 x 2 = 22 (wrong answer).

Using the Order of Operations.

Multiplication before Addition:

7 × 2 = 14, then 4 + 14 = 18 (correct answer).

The parenthesis is done first, the finally, the addition.

So it could be written: 4 + (7 x 2 ) = 18
