Rearrange equation, following the order of operations, to solve for the chosen variable. 5. Plug in the proper values and units. Solve Let’s refresh our memory on the Order of Operations!

14. Rearranging Equations When you have more than one operation in a math problem, you must follow the correct order of operations. When you have more than one operation in a math problem, you must follow the correct order of operations. Just remember: Just remember: “Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally” “Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally”

15. Order of Operations “Please” - parentheses “Please” - parentheses “Excuse” - exponents “Excuse” - exponents “My” - multipy “My” - multipy “Dear” - divide “Dear” - divide “Aunt” - add “Aunt” - add “Sally” - subtract “Sally” - subtract

16. Order of Operations When solving problems: When solving problems: Make sure the problem is copied down correctly Make sure the problem is copied down correctly Follow the order of operations Follow the order of operations Do each operation within each level from left to right Do each operation within each level from left to right Be careful not to reuse any numbers Be careful not to reuse any numbers Continue until all operations are done Continue until all operations are done
