BEDMAS

B- brackets ( )

E- exponents

D- division

(In order from left to right)

M- multiplication x

A- addition +

(In order from left to right)

S- subtraction -

Q:
Annie has been asked to calculate 1.7 + 6 divided 2. She claims that the answer is 3.85. Do you agree?
EXPLAIN WHY OR WHY NOT!

I don't agree because she didn't use BEDMAS.

EXAMPLE

(2+3)-1=
Brackets come first come first because It's fist on Bedmas.

ANOTHER EXAMPLE

6-7x5=
Multiplication goes fist because It's before everything else if you use Bedmas.
