Basic Operations
L.O – To recall the concept of BIDMAS and recognise its importance in calculations
BIDMAS tells us the order that we carry out calculations
This tells us that any brackets need to be dealt with first, followed by indices (i.e. powers), then division, multiplication, addition and finally subtraction. It is essential to carry out the calculation in this order, otherwise the answer calculated will be incorrect.
Example 1:
Calculate 3 + 7 x 10 – 2
- Remember BIDMAS
- There are no brackets, indices or divisions in this calculation, so the first operation to deal with is multiplication
3 + 7 x 10 – 2
3 + 70 – 2
- Next, we need to deal with the addition
3 + 70 – 2
73 – 2
- The last operation is subtraction
73 – 2 = 71
Example 2:
Calculate 50 – 62
- Remember BIDMAS
- BIDMAS tells us indices come before subtraction
50 – 62
50 – 36
- Next, carry out the subtraction
50 – 36 = 14
Example 3:
Calculate (1 + 4)2 x 3 – 25
- Remember BIDMAS
- BIDMAS tells us brackets come first
(1 + 4)2 x 3 – 25
52 x 3 – 25
- Next, we need to deal with the indices
52 x 3 – 25
25 x 3 – 25
- According to BIDMAS, multiplication comes next
25 x 3 – 25
125 – 25
- Finally, deal with the subtraction
125 – 25 = 100
