THE BODMAS RULE

THE BODMAS RULE :-   It is used for the ordering of mathematical operations in a mathematical situation.
                    BODMAS  stands for -

                    B  -  Brackets
                    O  -  Of
                    D  -  Division
                    M  -  Multiplication
                    A  -  Addition
                    S  -  Subtraction

   In any mathematical situation, the first thing to be considered is brackets followed by division, multiplication, addition and subtraction in that order.
  Note:-  According to bodmas rule, if there is a bracket we solve it first.

Types of Brackets :-   There can be more than one brackets present in a problem. If these brackets are to be given one inside the other, we use different brackets in a fixed order.

1. $\overline{\: \: \; \; \; \; \; \; \; }$   Bar of Vinculum.
2. ( )   Round Bracket or Small Bracket or Parenthesis.
3. { }  Curly Bracket or Braces.
4. [ ]   Square Bracket.

   If all the brackets are used in a problem, they will be placed as :
                              
                               [ { $\bar{(\; \; \; )}$ } ]

   We start solving from inside brackets.
