Example Question #1 : How To Use The Order Of Operations In Pre Algebra
Suppose you know the value of 
In which order would you carry out the four operations in the expression?
Cube, multiply, add, subtract
Add, multiply, subtract, cube
Multiply, add, subtract, cube
Multiply, subtract, add, cube
Cube, multiply, subtract, add
Multiply, subtract, add, cube
By order of operations, always carry out any operations within grouping symbols first. Since there are nested grouping symbols, work from the inside (the parentheses) outward. Within the parentheses, there is a multiplication and a subtraction; do them in that order. Going outward, there is a subtraction within the brackets, so do that next. A cube remains, so do that last.
In summary: Multiply, subtract, add, cube
