Algebra Tip: Order Of Operations

The Rules for Order of Operations

Students need to be familiar with order of operations not only in order to carry out calculations manually but also to be able to enter calculations on a calculator correctly. As you do examples in class, work methodically, one step at a time, stating each of the rules in order even though they
might not all apply as shown below.

Some students use the memory device “Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally” to help remember the rules for order of operations:

Parentheses
Exponential expressions
Multiply and
Divide
Add and
Subtract
