This math topic focuses on practicing the order of operations, including exponents, and emphasizes understanding which operations should be performed first in given mathematical expressions. The problems challenge learners to identify whether exponents, division, multiplication, addition, or subtraction should be executed first, according to the conventional order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS rules). Each question presents an expression and multiple-choice answers, illustrating different steps to solve the problems correctly. This area of practice serves as an introduction to mastering the correct sequence of operations in more complex equations.
