Order of Operations in Mathematics follow this following rule :

ParenthesesExponentsMultiplication and DivisionAddition and Subtraction

This rule is known as the PEMDAS method.

In working on a mathematical problem, we first calculate operation that is in parentheses, follow by exponentiation, then multiplication or division, and finally addition or subtraction.

Let us tackle the problem !

$\texttt{ }$

Melanie bought 3 sacks of potatoes. Each sack of potatoes weighed 4 pounds.

$\texttt{Total mass of 3 sacks of potatoes} = 3 \times 4 = 12 \texttt{ pounds}$

$\texttt{ }$

Melanie bought 2 sacks of tomatoes. Each sack of tomatoes weighed 2 pounds.

$\texttt{Total mass of 2 sacks of tomatoes} = 2 \times 2 = 4 \texttt{ pounds}$

$\texttt{ }$

Melanie bought a watermelon. Each watermelon weighed 22 pounds.

$\texttt{Total mass of a watermelon} = 1 \times 22 = 22 \texttt{ pounds}$

$\texttt{ }$

$\texttt{Total mass} = 12 + 4 + 22 = 38 \texttt{ pounds}$
