Why is it important to use the order of operations to simplify an expression?

Short Answer

Expert verified

It is very important to follow the guidelines which are called "order of operations", otherwise the expression may result wrong.

Step by step solution

01

The reason why the "order of operations" is important to simplify any expression.

Let an expression 3+4脳7.

  • Simplify the expression by first adding 3 and 4 and then multiplying the result by 7.

role="math" localid="1644692610187" 3+4脳7=7脳7=49

  • Apply the "order of operation". First, multiply the 4 and 7 and then add the result to 3.

3+4脳7=3+28=31

  • Now, it is showing that both results differ from each other which means that it is important to use the "order of operations" while solving any expression.
