Where they differed most
Create a mnemonic for the order of operations (brackets, indices, division/multiplication, addition/subtraction) that is NOT 'BIDMAS/BODMAS' spelled out, plus one sentence on when the D/M order actually matters.
**Brave Iguanas Divide Mangoes, Add Strawberries.** The order of division and multiplication only matters when they appear at the same level: work through them **from left to right** (and do the same for addition and subtraction).
**Mnemonic:** *Brackets first, then Indices rise,* *Multiply and Divide, left-to-right wise,* *Add and Subtract for the final prize.* **When the D/M order actually matters:** The relative order of division and multiplication only matters when they appear sequentially in the same expression, requiring strict left-to-right evaluation because performing a multiplication before a preceding division will yield an incorrect result.
