2. Order of operations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

   For example, multiplication is granted a higher precedence than addition, and it has been this way since the introduction of modern algebraic notation. [2] [3] Thus, in the expression 1 + 2 × 3, the multiplication is performed before addition, and the expression has the value 1 + (2 × 3) = 7, and not (1 + 2) × 3 = 9.

3. Algebraic operation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_operation

   The ± sign means the equation can be written with either a + or a – sign. In mathematics, a basic algebraic operation is any one of the common operations of elementary algebra, which include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, raising to a whole number power, and taking roots (fractional power). [1]

4. Addition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Addition

   Addition (usually signified by the plus symbol +) is one of the four basic operations of arithmetic, the other three being subtraction, multiplication and division. [2] The addition of two whole numbers results in the total amount or sum of those values combined. The example in the adjacent image shows two columns of three apples and two apples ...

5. Algebraic expression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_expression

   An algebraic equation is an equation involving polynomials, for which algebraic expressions may be solutions. If you restrict your set of constants to be numbers, any algebraic expression can be called an arithmetic expression. However, algebraic expressions can be used on more abstract objects such as in Abstract algebra.

6. Mathematics - Wikipedia

   It is in Babylonian mathematics that elementary arithmetic (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) first appear in the archaeological record. The Babylonians also possessed a place-value system and used a sexagesimal numeral system which is still in use today for measuring angles and time.

7. Exercise (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exercise_(mathematics)

   Early exercises deal with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of integers. Extensive courses of exercises in school extend such arithmetic to rational numbers. Various approaches to geometry have based exercises on relations of angles, segments, and triangles.
