Exponents and Order of Operations
- Exponents or powers should be calculated before multiplication and division in a calculation.
- The correct order of operations according to BODMAS is:
- Brackets (or parentheses)
- Orders (or exponents)
- Division
- Multiplication
- Addition
- Subtraction
- The difference between 4(32) and (43)2 is the order in which the operations are performed:
- 4(32) = 4 × 32 (evaluate the expression inside the brackets first)
- (43)2 = 43 × 43 (evaluate the exponentiation first, then the result is multiplied by itself)
