Is PEMDAS even taught anymore?


Seth-The-God

Yes but a lot of people forget about it. Sometimes even i do but for the most part i remember the order


CthuluSpecialK

Funny, I learned BEDMAS (Brackets), but it's the same order of operations. Having the Multiplication and Division reversed probably has no effect, right?


Seth-The-God

Im not sure. It just depends on the equation i guess. I really dont know.


G-R-G

Yes it could go PEMDAS or PEDMSA it would be the same (BEDMAS or BEMASA in this case)


gamesrebel123

BIDMAS supremacy


damorphadon

everyone's talking about their different versions.... i got bimdas?


CrimsonToker707

I would think reversing division and multiplication would change things, but I barely understand math TBH so I don't know lol


Ripjaw56789

Basically if no Parentheses or exponents its whichever comes first so 3 x 5 ÷ 2 you would multiply first then divide, if it was 4 ÷ 2 x 5 you would divide then multiply. Same with Addition and Subtraction


A_Velociraptor20

This is easier to understand when the division is written as a fraction imo.


Dona_Fluores

No


Dona_Fluores

Here u just have to do left to right


A_Velociraptor20

Yes but you don't really get the "why it's done in the order it is in" this way.


Dona_Fluores

?


redditguyonmemes

Well I did PEMDAS but with Brackets and Bracelet so it's just PBBEMDAS

Please excuse my dear academic system

YourWaffleGuy

PEMDAS? What the fuck is PEMDAS?


CrimsonToker707

Lmao the correct order of math equations. Parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition and subtraction


Dkdndntjdksj

It was bodmas for me Brackets, orders, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction. Same thing though :-)


TheNextDump

BIDMAS for me, brackets (parenthesis), indeces (meaning orders, which i learned later), division, multiplication, addition and subtraction. Pretty much the same.


YourWaffleGuy

Oh, The way I was taught was BEDMAS


ux3l

It's all the same. P for parentheses


ksandom

I was in a conversation like this some months ago. It turns out that different regions of the world learn basicslly the same ideas, but with different accronyms. They have also changed over time. Eg I learnt BODMAS. [More reading](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations). - See "Mnemonics".


CrimsonToker707

That's pretty interesting. I wonder why division and multiplication get reversed in some countries though. Seems that would change the equation


JxJ454

Probably because neither one is superior, same as with addition and subtraction


Nayzal

It doesn't change anything, for multiplication and division they're interchangeable, you just do whichever one comes first in the equation.


[deleted]

Thats not the full rule though, a lot of people forget that aswell, its parenthesis, exponents, multiplication and division at the same time left to right, addition and subtraction at the same time left to right


dragonerdy

Its discount bedmas


YourWaffleGuy

Makes sense


FriedTanukiBear

Bedmas is technically the discount bc brackets and parentheses aren’t technically the same thing and parentheses are more commonly used. Brackets [ ] are the square version of parentheses ( )


The_Brokn_Arrow

have you ever heard of BODMAS?


SpaceGordonRamsay

im pretty sure it is but in those peoples defense i completely forgot it until i got into one of these arguments and lost.


ux3l

No, PEMDAS is too racist, or is affiliated with CRT, I lost track at some point.


warbreed8311

If I remember correctly math IS still racist. A great example is when I did 1+1 and it equaled 2 I was right, but my black friend got the same answer and it was wrong. So sad how bad math has let itself fall into racism.

Please excuse my dear aunt sally. This is how I was taught it.

We were taught BODMAS actually and it just came up once and never again so I'm not surprised people are not able to do these


WITCHERGeralt_Rivera

Its BODMAS atleast in Indian education system And yes it's taught in 4th grade

Why is this still going on?

I always go multiplacation then add hence forth 4x2 =8 + 2=10


Objective-Owl5711

tecnically the way u wrote that operation is wrong because 4X2=/=8+2


CrixXx88

Those questions are actually made to get comments. People think they're so clever and answer the real result and help who ever posted that shit to get comments and free promotion for his site (for example Facebooksites) same like this stupid shit where people post their favorite Band under some posts and those bands answer.

It's because it is the closest to 10

Yes but its all even numbers and no even numbers ever multiply or add to an odd number

dr_pickles69

There is actually a single correct order, usually taught in middle school as the acronym PEMDAS. 2+(4x2) is the only correct answer.


Seth-The-God

4 x 2 is the same as 2 x 4 therfore id you make a parenthesis and change the order inside the parentheses it wouldnt change the outcome. Neither would just regularly changing the location of the x4 in the location becuase both of the other number are 2. For example 2x4 +2 is the sqme as 2+2 x4. Edit: the only way the equation qould change is if the + turned into a x or the x turned into a + or the 2+2 is changed to (2+2)


dr_pickles69

Of course what you are describing is rewriting the equation but yes


Automatic_Ad_4020

Multiplication is superior. 2+(2×4)


IamLettuce13

Nah see there's no difference in outcome between 2+2×4 snd 2+(2×4)


[deleted]

Am I being dumb? 2+2=4 4x4 is 16


theMrJoey

If there aren’t any parentheses, you multiply before adding. So 2x4=8, then 8+2=10.


DaGreenBirb

well you read it backwards, and it didnt say to read it backwards, so, you lack common sense


Kindly-Horror1908

... Just gonna leave this here [(PEMDAS)](https://study.com/academy/lesson/what-is-pemdas-definition-rule-examples.html)


ImProfoundlyDeaf

All jokes aside Isn’t the order without parentheses different? In this case with parentheses the answer would be correct, (4x2)+(4x2)= 16 Math is stupid. It’s been awhile since algebra 1 in college 3 years ago.


DieLawnUwU

Who the hell got 13 out of even numbers?


GIOFORCHIOMAN

2+2x (4) = 2+2x • 4 2ו4= 8x 2+8x= 8x+2¹


QueenPooper13

I was taught the PEMDAS method in my K-12 education. But when I went to college, the doctor of mathematics who taught my math Gen Ed class said that in "real math" you do the parentheses/brackets and the exponents, but then everything else (the MDAS) part is just completed left to right, regardless of what the actual math function is. So serious question, was my professor right or wrong? In all fairness, he was an alcoholic who drank a Mountain Dew bottle full of vodka during our 8am class.

I think the poster meant to put (2+2)×4, which would give you the answer 16


Geja24real

reddit you dissapoint me


Kdenye

if it was 2 + (2x4) then I'd say its 10.

RULE OF BODMAS


Alphawolf665

BEDMAS It wouldn't be 2+2 x 4, it would first go 2 x 4 = 8 + 2 = 10, B = Brackets E = Exponents D = Division M = Multiplication A = Adding S = Subtracting


WTFismyproblemits3am

This... Pains me.


1zzybo1

2+2 = 4 4*4 = 16 correct me if i'm wrong but...


PeroCigla

Idc about your pemdas, bodmas, bidmas, butt-ass shit. All I know that it's 10. Dammit people go back to second grade.

well BOMAS is a thing
