  1. 14 - 8 + 3 = 9 OR 14 - 8 + 3 = 3 Which one is correct? 14 - 8 + 3 = 9 14 - 8 + 3 ≠ 3 Convention: Addition an subtraction left to right Multiplication and Division 29 Addition and Subtraction 33 Patterns and Algebra 31

  2. 24 ÷ 4 x 6 = 36 OR 24 ÷ 4 x 6 = 1 Which one is correct? 24 ÷ 4 x 6 = 36 24 ÷ 4 x 6 ≠ 1 Convention: Multiplication and division left to right Multiplication and Division 29 Addition and Subtraction 33 Patterns and Algebra 31

  3. 8 + 5 x 2 = 26 OR 8 + 5 x 2 = 18 Which one is correct? 8 + 5 x 2 ≠ 26 8 + 5 x 2 = 18 Convention: First multiplication and division left to right, then addition an subtraction left to right Multiplication and Division 29 Addition and Subtraction 33 Patterns and Algebra 31

  4. (8 + 5) x 2 = 26 8 + 5 x 2 = 18 • The bracket is a grouping symbol that tells us to perform that operation first. • So in this number sentence with the brackets as grouping symbols, we will add 8 and 5 first to make 13, then multiply the total by 2 to make 26. Multiplication and Division 29 Addition and Subtraction 33 Patterns and Algebra 31

  5. Investigation: Select cards to make a number sentence (equation) involving more than one operation. Solve the number sentence (equation) by performing the operations using the convention for the order of operations. Reflection: How does the convention for the order of operations make sure we all get the same answer? Problem Solving Lola said this number sentence equals 44. 3 + 8 x 4 = 44 Do you agree? Why? Multiplication and Division 29 Addition and Subtraction 33 Patterns and Algebra 31

  6. Investigation: Select cards to make a number sentence (equation) involving more than one operation. Solve the number sentence by performing the operations using the convention for the order of operations. Insert a grouping symbol to change the order of operations. Solve the number sentence by performing the operations in the new order. Did you get different answers? Why? Reflection: How do grouping symbols change the order of operations? Problem Solving Kerry said this number sentence equals 44. (3 + 8) x 4 = 44 Do you agree? Why? Multiplication and Division 29 Addition and Subtraction 33 Patterns and Algebra 31
