Order of Operations Priority - Add, Subtract (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on understanding and applying the order of operations to equations involving solely addition and subtraction. It aims to clarify the priority of these operations when solving problems. The exercises are structured to test knowledge on whether addition or subtraction has priority or if operations should be executed from left to right as they appear, without specific precedence between addition and subtraction. Each question features an equation and multiple-choice answers enlightening learners on the correct approach to address problems adhering to the order of operations rules.
