GPT 3.5
The order of operations, also known as PEMDAS, is a set of rules that dictate the sequence in which operations should be performed in mathematical expressions. These rules ensure that calculations are performed consistently and accurately. The order of operations is as follows:
1. Parentheses: Perform operations inside parentheses first.
2. Exponents: Simplify any expressions involving exponents.
3. Multiplication and Division: Perform multiplication and division from left to right.
4. Addition and Subtraction: Perform addition and subtraction from left to right.
By following this order, mathematical expressions are evaluated correctly.
