B. New Lesson
1. Motivation
Perform the indicated operations.
17 – 12 ÷ 3 x 4 + 32 + (9 -2)
(The pupils will solve the given

. problem)

2. Presentation
How did you solve the problem?
(The pupils will show their
solution)
What are the operations in the given
problem? Addition, Substraction,
Multiplication and Division
 Let us see if your answers are correct by
watching the video.

Let’s watch the video.

(The pupils will watch the video)

What are the main operations used in the

video?
Addition, Substraction,
Multiplication and Division

Who can tell me what do the examples

show?
These show Order of Operations.

Excellent!

3. Discussion
Let us have them one by one.

a. Find the value:

106 -67 +14
How do you solve the problem?
It involves only addition and
subtraction.
I should do them from left to right.
The answer is 53.
b. Find the value:
50 x 4 ÷ 20
How you can solve the problem?
It only involves Multiplication and
Division.
The answer is 10.
c. Find the value:
 15 + 2 x 4
How do you solve the problem? I have to do multiplication before
addition.
The answer is 23.

d. Find the value:

38 – 42 ÷ 6
How do you solve the problem? I have to do divide before
subtraction.
The answer is 31.

e. Find the value:

25 x ( 13 – 3 )
How do you solve the problem? I have to do what is in the
parentheses first, then multiply.
The answer is 250

f. Can you find the value of ?

43- ( 18 – 16 )2 x 4

How you can solve the example ? I have to do what is in the

parentheses first with exponent
after that multiplication and the last
is substraction
The answer is 27

To remind simplify an expression can called

GEMDAS rule
G  Grouping
E  Exponent
M  Multiplication
 D  Division
A  Addition
S  Substraction

4. Generalization
What should we remember when solving
problems involving series of operations?
Perform MDAS or PEMDAS

What should you perform first?

Multiplication and division
whichever comes first from left to
right.
What is the next step?
Add and subtract whichever comes
first from left to right.
5. Application
I have a games for our. Name of the
games Is Find your Match. I will give
you number and you fill in the blanks
with +. - , x or ÷ to make each number
sentence true.
a. 3 5 4 = 23
a. 3+ 5 x 4 = 23
b. 16 8 6 = 12
b. 16 ÷8 x 6 = 12
c. 40 845 ( 26 2 )2 = 45
c. 40 + 845 ÷ ( 7 + 6 )2 = 45
d. 3 (3 3) 3= 54
d. 3x ( 3+ 3 ) x 3= 54
e. 42 8 10 5 = 15
e. 42 ÷ 8 x10 + 5 = 15

IV. Evaluation
1. Name the operation that should be done first, then find the value.
a. 22 + 14 x 20
 b. 52 ÷ 4 + 38
c. 13 x 7 + 41
d. 29 x 14 - 103
e. 18 – 155 ÷ 11

2. Find the value of each mathematical sentence

a. ( 17 + 263 ) ÷ 7
b. 5 x [(11+9) x 4 + 6 ] + 15
c. 59 – [( 35÷5 )2 -20 ] + 6
d. 504 ÷ [ ( 34 -25 ) x 3 ) – 18 ]
e. 12 x [( 16 – 14 )3 + 22] ÷ 5 x ( 225-218 )

V. Assignments
1. Use the numbers 3, 4 , 6 and 8 once in each exercise to make a true statement
a. ( + ) ÷ ( + ) =2

b. x + ( + )3 = 391

c. x( x )+ = 18

d. + ( - )2 + = 11

e. ÷ +( - )=6

2. Place parentheses in the equation so that each equation will be a true statement.
a. 18 ÷ 6 x 3 = 1
b. 20 – 8 ÷ 4 = 3
c. 3 x 5 – 4 = 3
d. 16 – 7 + 8 = 17
e. 12 + 2 ÷ 4 = 2
