Multiplying and Dividing Before Adding and Subtracting Worksheet Download
This math worksheet practices one rule of the order of operations: multiply and divide before you add and subtract. There are no parentheses or exponents. Every problem gives a different answer if it is worked left to right, so the rule really matters: 6 + 3 × 4 is 18, not 36. The answer key shows each problem with its multiplication and division already done.
