The acronym for performing arithmetic functions is "BEDMAS", which stands for Brackets, Exponents, Division, Mutiplication, Addition, and Subtraction. This is the "order of operations" for any arithmetic problem.

Note: The French acronym "PEDMAS" - - Parentheses, Exposants, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Soustraction - - corresponds to "BEDMAS".

Note: The order of division and multiplication operations may be switched in an arithmetic problem, and the same is true for addition and subtraction.
