SADMEP is PEMDAS backwards. for SADMEP first you do subtraction or addition in the order they come in, then do division or multiplication in the order they come in, then exponents the parentatheses. SADMEP is used in equations for sure and inepualities i think.
PEMDAS stands for: Parentheses Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction [You do what's in the parentheses first, multiplication + division left to right, whatever comes first. Same with addition and subtraction.] Example: 7 × 8 + 36 ÷ 9 = 56 + 36 ÷ 9 = 56 + 4 = 60 Explanation: First, You would have to see what comes first. Multiplication comes first which is 7 X 8 = 56. Next, you drop everything down. Now it will be like this: 56 + 36 ÷ 9. What I did is I dropped down everything else, because I multiplied 8 X 7 which is 56. So now your left with 56 + 36 ÷ 9. Division comes before addition so, you cannot solve from left to right, so 36 ÷ 9 is 4. Now you drop the 56. Now your left with 56 + 4. 56 + 4 is equal to 60. 60 is your answer! It also can be interpreted as Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally
Addition is simpler than subtraction. Also, it is defined as the opposite of subtraction, so this ... opposite has to be taught first.
In the United States, the acronym PEMDAS is common. It stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction. PEMDAS is often expanded to the mnemonic "Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally". This explains the order of operations. With no brackets, exponents are resolved first, then multiplication and division from left to right, then addition and subtraction from left to right.
