BEDMAS order of operations — free printable diagram

About this illustration

This educational image depicts the BEDMAS order of operations as a stack of four colourful, numbered blocks. The top block, numbered 1, is 'Brackets' with '()' symbols; the second, numbered 2, is 'Exponents' with 'a²'; the third, numbered 3, is 'Division / Multiplication' with '÷x'; and the bottom, numbered 4, is 'Addition / Subtraction' with '+-'. The title 'BEDMAS' in playful, multi-coloured letters and 'Order of Operations' appear above the blocks. This visual aid teaches the correct sequence for solving mathematical equations, a core concept in primary and secondary mathematics, often used in UK, AU, NZ, and Canadian curricula. It's suitable for display slides, posters, or as a reference on worksheets. The visual style is a flat, clean, and cartoon-like illustration.
