The order of operations is remembered by this: PEMDAS 1. Parentheses 2. Exponents 3. Multiplications and Divisions from left to right. 4. Additions and Subtractions from left to right. Go down the list, and you see the first operation you need to do is multiplication (item 3.) then addition (item 4.) Do the multiplication first: –2 + 6 • (–10) = -2 + (-60) = -62
