That's cool, but still wrong :3

No fr I had no idea that those acronyms weren't the whole picture, I just assumed some mathematicians a long time ago decided how that stuff should be written out and that BEDMAS/PEMDAS/whatever contained all the rules in it. Thank you for the info, Idk why this isn't more widely taught, ig because those acronyms are what all the questions are already written for? It doesn't seem that hard to just teach it as BEADMAS, where the A refers to numbers adjacent to variables

Terms already are taught!
