What is BODMAS?

RE: BODMAS

Hi Foz,

Thank you for your question.

BODMAS is the order of calculations used by computers or calculators to resolve a formula that contains multiple operators.

e.g. =2+3*5/2 the answer would be 9.5.

So in the example above (D)Division, then (M)Multiplication and then (A)addition.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon
