GEMDAS
What do the M and D stand for in GEMDAS?
Multiplication and Division
Evaluate: 3x - 2, if x=10
3(10) - 2
30 - 2
= 28
2x+3x
6x
What operations are done left to Right?

What could happen if we all didn’t use the order of operations (GEMDAS)?
We could all get different answers
4g+f2 when f=2, g=5, h=11
24
4x2-3x+4x
4x2+x
