BOTH are Correct
depends on which way you look at the problem...UK uses BIDMAS/BODMAS, while US uses PEMDAS !PEMDAS > Parentheses Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction
BIDMAS > Brackets Indices Division Multiplication Addition Subtraction
I use BIDMAS
Good Luck with ur Trail tomorrow
