Lesson outcome

I can calculate using priority of operations, including brackets, powers, exponents and reciprocals with positive and negative integers, decimals and fractions.

Show transcript
Division and multiplication have the same priority. With addition and subtraction the convention is to move from left to right. Brackets make the priority much clearer and avoid ambiguity. Sometimes brackets can be implicit.
