The Basic Skills<br />
If you don’t follow the order of operations, you will get a different answer. That<br />
is why everyone must follow this math rule. Some questions have brackets and<br />
the question in the bracket needs to be done first.<br />
Let’s try 26 + 63 ÷ (15 - 8) x 2 ÷ 3 − 3<br />
1. Brackets first (15 - 8 ) = 7 26 + 63 ÷ 7 x 2 ÷ 3 – 3<br />
2. Nex,t division 63 ÷ 7 = 9 26 + 9 x 2 ÷ 3 – 3<br />
3. Now, multiply 9 x 2 = 18 26 + 18 ÷ 3 - 3<br />
4. Divide 18 ÷ 3 = 6 26 + 6 - 3<br />
5. Add first 26 + 6 32 – 3<br />
6. And finally subtract 32 − 3 = 29<br />
7. The answer: 29<br />
