Best Answer

BODMAS describes the order in which arithmetic operations must be carried out.

B = Brackets

O = Order (power or index)

D = Division

M = Multiplication

A = Addition

S = Subtraction.

So 2+3*4

is not to be calculated as 2+3 = 5 and 5*4 = 20

but

3*4 = 12 and 2+12 = 14

BODMAS requires that the multiplication is calculated before the addition.
