I'm surprised... all that math you do at work... tho I guess they have computers to handle all the heavy lifting!

My Dear Aunt Sally
Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction

This is the order in which you perform math operations in a situation where you have mixed operations and no parentheses to group things. (So 3 + 4 x 7 is always evaluated as 31, not 49.)

But I don't know what P and E are for... I guess P is Parentheses?
