1Order of Operations (PEMDAS)
2The Structural Procedure
  1. Grouping Symbols: Parentheses, brackets, fraction bars inner to outer
  2. Exponents: Evaluate all powers
  3. Multiply & Divide left to right; Add & Subtract left to right
3Mathematical Word Bank
  • Write and Evaluate Numerical Expressions with Exponents (Escribir y evaluar expresiones numéricas con exponentes) — Turning a situation into a number sentence without an equal sign, then finding its value in the correct order.
  • Numerical expression (Expresión numérica) — A math phrase built from numbers and operations, with no equal sign and no variable.
  • Evaluate (Evaluar) — To find the single value an expression is worth by carrying out its operations in order.
  • Order of operations (Orden de las operaciones) — The agreed order for evaluating: grouping symbols, then exponents, then multiply and divide left to right, then add and subtract left to right.
  • Power (Potencia) — A short way to write repeated multiplication of the same factor, such as 2³ for 2 × 2 × 2.
  • Base (Base) — In a power, the number being multiplied by itself. In 2³ the base is 2.
4Watch out
  • A common mistake with powers is multiplying the base by the exponent: reading 3² as 3 × 2 = 6 instead of 3 × 3 = 9. A second is evaluating strictly left to right, so 3 + 4 × 2 becomes 14 instead of 11. The order of operations exists so one expression has exactly one value: grouping symbols, then powers, then × and ÷ left to right, then + and − left to right.
