parentheses
exponents
multiplication
division
addition
subtraction
there are no parentheses and no exponents so we want to do multiplication first
9*2= 18
so now your equation is 18 + 36 divided by 18
the next step is division so we want to divide 36 by 18
36/18= 2
now our final step is addition
18+2=20
the final answer is 20
