1. Education  Discuss in my forum  What is BEDMAS?   Definition:
Although I'm a strong proponent of understanding the 'why'
behind the math concept, there are acronyms that help
individuals remember how to perform a set of procedure in math.
BEDMAS or PEDMAS is one of them. BEDMAS is an acronym to help
remember an order of operations in algebra basics. When you have
math problems that require the use of different operations
(multiplication, division, exponents, brackets, subtraction,
addition) order is necessary and mathematicians have agreed on
the BEDMAS/PEDMAS order. Each letter of BEDMAS refers to one
part of the operation to be used. In math, there is an agreed
upon set of prodedures for the order in which your operatioins
are performed. You will likely come up with a wrong answer if
you perform calculations out of the order. When you follow the
correct order, the answer will be correct. Remember to work from
left to right as you use the BEDMAS order of operations. Each
letter stands for:   • B - Bracket
