In the absence of grouping symbols, the first operations that should be carried out are exponentiations, followed by multiplications and divisions, followed by additions and subtractions.
The additions and subtractions are carried out from left to right. Since the addition is the one to the right, it is performed last.

My sister invited me to play an online word game. In the game vowels (a,e,i,o,u) are worth 3 points and consonants are worth 5. How much would I score if I use the word “University” ?

In the word we have 4 vowels (3 x 4 = 12 points) and 6 consonants (5 x 6= 30). If we add the points together we get a total of 42 points.

Listing them all, 10-20-30-40-50-60-70-80-90-100-110-120-130-140 you see you can divide the numbers in half (7 pairs). Alternatively you can take (140-10+10)/2/10, adding that additional +10 in the numerator because it is inclusive, giving you 7. Just adding the top and bottom numbers gives you 10+140 for 150. 150*7 is 1050.
