WESTON — The "Survivor Math Challenge" on Sept. 26 was an outdoor event in which teams of students competed with one another to solve order-of-operations math problems before completing a variety of ...

The order of operations is a collection of rules that gives the correct sequence of steps for doing a calculation. Watch the video to hear Berry discuss how remembering the correct order of operations ...

You don’t have to be a math whiz to know that 4 - 2 + 1 equals 3. Yet I was working with several students recently who said it equals 1. And it wasn’t their fault. Nor was it their teacher’s fault.

Mathematical operations must be carried out in the correct order. BODMAS and BIDMAS are ways of remembering this order. Calculate the value of \([40 - (2 + 4^2)] \times 2\). Using the BODMAS/BIDMAS ...

The confusion (likely intentional) boiled down to a discrepancy between the math rules used in grade school and in high school. By Steven Strogatz Recently I wrote about a math equation that had ...

At first glance, the problem appears easy enough. But while many users on X, formerly Twitter, quickly chimed in with answers, only a small number got it right - because only they remembered to apply ...
