The British acronym is BIDMAS - which should actually be BI(DM)(AS) and stands for:
Brackets
Indices
Division and Multiplication (equal order, do from left to right)
Addition and Subtraction (equal order, do from left to right).
The US equivalent is PEMDAS where P = Parentheses and E = Exponent.
Yes, and parenthesis are the first thing you solve.
Because if you perform the operations in a different order your answer will be wrong.
Because if you did operations in an impermissible order, or violated laws of operations, then your solution to the equation is wrong.
You do it wrong. With out order of operations, the same math problem could have several different answers. In math, there is only one answer.
Order of Operations is like when you have a problem i always use PEMDAS it means parenthesis, expoents, mulitipication, divide, addition, Subtraction follow it.

yes
We have to use the order of operations so everyone solves a problem the same.

They can be performed in either order.

order of operations
divide
no it's actually totally different. the distributive property divides up the problem and solves it. and it can answer problems that order of operations sometimes can't. just because you get the same answer doesn't make them the same problem.
it is ok in some occasains but you might want to retry the problem
