Hi,                                                      

 I am going to talk about PEMDAS. PEMDAS is a mathematical order in witch you preform math operations. For example, the order you preform when you have a question like 92 +(18+2)-(12+876).
PEMDAS means P-parenthies, E-exponents, M-multiplcation, D-divition, A-addition,and S-subtraction. PEMDAS is to be done in that order.That is why it is called order of operations.Always go left to right when doing it.


                                                          answer                                                                                                                                    


lets say we want to solve 92(18-16)÷(11+1). So first we go in order of PEMDAS.So we start with parentasece in 92(18-16)÷(11+1).18-16=2 and 11+1=12. Now the problem is 92(2)÷(12).next is exponets.9x9=81. now it is 81(2)÷(12).Next we do multiplcation 81x2=162. Now the question is 162÷ 12 and now we do divtion. The answer is 13.5.If there was more you would do addition then subtraction.
