inside the Parentheses (or Brackets).
Next, we evaluate any Exponents (or Orders).
After that, we perform Multiplication and Division from left to right.
Finally, we perform Addition and Subtraction from left to right.
If you ignore these simple steps, you will end up with the wrong answer.
Step 2: Solving Inside the Parentheses
Let us look closely at our expression: (5 + 5) x 10 – 10 / 5.
According to our rule, the absolute first step is the part inside the parentheses: (5 + 5).
We simply add five and five together.
5 +
