Break up any expression or calculation into terms first.
#Terms are separated by + and - signs.

Each terms must result in one answer. In the last step the terms are added or subtracted to give a final answer.

Powers and roots are the strongest operations.
Multiplication and division are done next and are equally strong - they can be done in any order.

Least important are add and subtract. Parentheses are used if a weak operation is to be done before a stronger one.
