evaluating expressions
Order of Operations: the order in which mathematic operations must be performed when evaluating an expression. It is usually represented with the acronym PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, Addition and Subtraction)
Operands: the values or variables used in an expression. They are the objects that the operators act on.
Operators: the symbols that indicate an operation (e.g. +, -, *, /, etc.)

Did you know?
In mathematics, evaluating an expression means to find its value, i.e. to determine what number it represents. The process of evaluating an expression involves substituting the values of all the variables, constants and operators to find a single number or value. The process of evaluating an expression is sometimes referred to as simplif
