Question 14989
  There is no B E D M A S

  B O D M A S means as under. This is used when we simplify the expressions.


  B = Brackets

  O = Of

  D = Division

  M = Multiplication

  A = Addition

  S = Subtraction


  When an expression is to be simplified, first we have to remove the Brackets 
  by simplifying the expression within the brackets.
  Then secondly Of means we have to do the operations like 1/4th of or 20% of   
  etc.
  Then we have to do the divisions in the expression. 
  Then we have to do the multiplications in that expression
  Then we have to do the additions and subtractions in the last to arrive at
  the correct answer.  So to remember which to do first and which then, we have
  to remember the word BODMAS.
  So there is no BEDMAS

  I hope it is clear to you
