The most common rule used in mathematics is the BODMAS rule. As per this rule, the arithmetic operations are performed based on the brackets and order of operations. By the full form of BODMAS, we can easily understand this logic.
BODMAS – Brackets Orders Division Multiplication Addition and Subtraction
Therefore, the first priority here is given to the brackets then division>multiplication>addition>subtraction.
For example, if we have to solve [5+(3 x 5)÷2], then using the BODMAS rule, first multiply 3 and 5, within the brackets.
→ 5+(3 x 5)÷2 = 5 + 15÷2
Now divide 15 by 2
→ 5 + 7.5
→ 12.5
