Order of Operations Practice Quiz

The correct order of operations follows the PEMDAS rule where operations inside Parentheses are performed first, then Exponents, followed by Multiplication and Division (from left to right), and finally Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). The other options mix up this sequence, leading to potential calculation errors.

Following the order of operations, multiplication is carried out before addition: 4 x 2 equals 8, then adding 3 gives 11. The option 14 results from incorrectly adding before multiplying.

First, solve inside the parentheses: 2 + 2 equals 4. Then, perform the division and multiplication from left to right: 8 ÷ 2 equals 4, and 4 x 4 gives 16.

According to the order of operations, any calculation inside parentheses should be performed before operations outside them. Multiplying 6 by 2 is performed before adding the result to 5.

The correct procedure is to first add the numbers inside the parentheses (3 + 4 equals 7) and then multiply by 2, which results in 14. The other options perform operations in the wrong order.

First, compute the exponent: 2^2 equals 4. Then multiply 3 by 4 to get 12, and subtract this from 12 to obtain 0.

Begin by adding the numbers inside the parentheses: 4 + 6 equals 10. Then, perform the division (10 ÷ 2 = 5) followed by multiplication (5 x 3 = 15) to arrive at the correct answer.

Division takes precedence, so evaluate 18 ÷ 3 to get 6. Then follow left-to-right addition and subtraction: 7 + 6 equals 13, and 13 - 2 gives 11.

First, solve the parentheses: 3 + 1 equals 4. Then multiply by 2 to get 8, and finally subtract from 9 to obtain 1.

Begin by evaluating the parentheses: (8 + 2) equals 10 and (3 - 1) equals 2, then multiply to get 20. Next, compute the exponent 4^2 to get 16 and add it to 20 for a sum of 36.

Calculate the multiplication inside the parentheses first (3 x 5 equals 15), then perform the division (15 ÷ 15 equals 1) and finally add 2 to arrive at 3. Incorrect sequencing of operations would lead to a different result.

Following PEMDAS, perform multiplication first: 6 x 2 equals 12. Then, carry out addition and subtraction in order: 4 + 12 equals 16, and 16 - 3 gives 13.

Compute the exponent first: 5^2 equals 25; subtracting 3 gives 22. Dividing 22 by 2 results in 11, which is the correct value.

First, calculate the exponent 3^2 which is 9; then multiply by 2 to obtain 18 and finally add 4 to reach 22. Each operation is performed in the proper sequence to yield this result.

Start by solving the parentheses: 2 + 3 equals 5; then divide 20 by 4 to get 5, and finally multiply 5 by 5 to obtain 25. The sequential processing of these operations is key to the correct answer.

Compute the exponent first: 4^2 equals 16; then add 5 to get 21 within the parentheses. Multiplying 6 by 21 yields 126, dividing by 3 gives 42, and finally adding 3 results in 45.

Start by computing the exponent: 2^2 equals 4, then perform the division: 12 ÷ 4 equals 3. Next, add the numbers inside the parentheses (3 + 1 equals 4), multiply to get 12, and finally subtract 5 to arrive at 7.

First, compute the exponent 2^3 which equals 8 and perform the multiplication 4 x 3 to get 12. Then, execute the operations from left to right: 18 minus 12 equals 6, and finally adding 8 results in 14.

First, solve the parentheses: 5 + 3 equals 8 and 2^2 equals 4. Multiplying these gives 32; then, compute the division 4 ÷ 2 to obtain 2, and subtracting yields 30.

Evaluate the parentheses: 3 + 5 equals 8, and multiplying by 2 gives 16. Then, compute the exponent 4^2 equals 16, divide by 2 to get 8, and finally subtract 8 from 16 to obtain 8.
