Does my calculator follow the order of operations? Yes. The Calculator I’m using for  this experiment is Google calculator.

The equation I used for this example is 4 ÷ 2 x (3+2) – 1. If my Calculator didn’t follow the order of operations, it would just do the equation from left to right, no order at all, let’s try that: 4 ÷ 2  x 3 (is six) + 2 (eight) – 1. Answer is seven, just going from left to right, not following the order of operations, but the answer I got proves that my calculator follows the order of operations. There are two types of Order Of Operations: PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division,,  Addition, and Subtraction. The second, and the one I follow, is BEDMAS (Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, and subtraction). This will be useful to remember. Anyway, back to  how I know my calculator follows the ooo. We finished  talking about how seven will be the sum of the equation if you do not the order of operations, but my calculator did follow the order of operations and got the right sum.

4 ÷ 2 x (3+2) – 1, following BEDMAS, that would be: 4 ÷ 2 (2) x 5 (because of the brackets there, it indicates you should do them first)= 10, – 1 = (total) 9, and that’s the answer I got on Google Calculator.
