๐ Topic Summary
Whole number operations are the basic math functions we use every day: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. When solving problems, it's important to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS): Parentheses/Brackets, Exponents/Orders, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), and Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). Mastering these operations is super important for more advanced math later on!
