Worksheet Preview
When all four operations meet
Once expressions mix addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and parentheses, the order of operations does the heavy lifting of telling everyone how to evaluate them consistently: parentheses, then × and ÷, then + and −, always left to right within a step.
How to use it
The best habit for harder expressions is to rewrite the whole expression after each step, doing just one operation at a time, rather than juggling several in your head. This is the natural extension of order of operations with parentheses.
👩🏫 Teacher note
These expressions mix +, −, ×, ÷, and parentheses. Have students rewrite the expression after each step rather than trying to do several at once.
🏠 Parent note
Do parentheses first, then × and ÷ (left to right), then + and − (left to right). Take one step at a time.
Common Mistakes to Watch For
- Doing addition before multiplication or division
- Not working left to right within the same step
