Yes it is! P for parentheses, E for exponents, M for multiplication, D for division, A for addition, S for subtraction. and the order of that DOES matter.

hmm that sound better than BODMAS which uses 'brackets' and 'of'. looks like the Aussies skipped out on the exponents :P

81. lmao I'm from Sydney, I was taught BODMAS too, 13s example sounds better. we were robbed!!

Our 'O' is 'Orders' which is our equivalent word for exponents..

Here in Canada, it's B for Brackets, E for Exponents, D for Division, M for Multiplication, A for Addition and S for Subtraction. BEDMAS. But it doesn't matter if you add or subtract first. That's the way I was taught.

D and M are as they occur left to right but before A and S which you also do left to right. It's a confusing way to teach it really because a LOT of people think you have to do division before multiplication or vice versa when in fact they go L to R

"Hey, look at" -incorrect punctuation after "hey" "look at it this way:" -needs a colon at the end "You, on the other hand" -incomplete sentence *you're teaching - wrong "your" "Nothing [...] that" - lacks a verb Don't disrespect teachers, dick.

You look like a long haired Jimmy Fallon

How many times do you need to be corrected by simply adding an apostrophe and another letter? Every now and again fml comments forget a letter here or leave out an apostrophe there but #15 typed your doing a good job instead of you are or you're, then this dude only a few comments below types it the same way. Honestly how many people have to use your incorrectly before it is understood that your and you are/you're aren't-are not-the same word?

The day people abandon their egos and take a look at how stupid they are as opposed to merely criticizing the stupidity of others is the day we actually get some effort directed towards correcting terrible ingrained habits. In other words, #65... you'll be waiting until the stress and frustration put you in an early grave :(

Well said 85. 65, you need to calm down. It's not a big deal.

agree

I bet you've made some mistakes in your life worse than that.

But you can call your kid "it" and it's fine?

So you would be one of those annoying parents that call up the school complaining about every little thing and trying to get everyone fired? My mom is the vice principal of a school, people like you make her job a living hell.

One mistake you just made was referring to another human being as "it"
