Teach Yourself (1)

Resource type Rules of arithmetic
Evaluating expressions involving numbers is one of the basic tasks in arithmetic. But if an expression is complicated then it may not be clear which part of it should be evaluated first, and so some rules must be established. There are also rules for calculating with negative numbers.
