Set 1. Prints on its own sheet.
It practises all the priority rules in one set — 12 questions for Grade 5, all on Common Core 5.OA.A.1: Work out expressions with brackets, in the right order. The instruction to pupils is “Work out each answer”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.5.OA.A.1 — 5.OA.A.1, in the Operations & Algebraic Thinking domain for Grade 5. The published standard reads: “Use parentheses, brackets, or braces in numerical expressions, and evaluate expressions with these symbols.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
Mixed Order of Operations is written for Grade 5, typically ages 10-11. It is one of the sheets on 5.OA.A.1, so it suits any pupil working at that standard — including older pupils revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Yes. All 12 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.
25 — one per pupil, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.
Yes. Mixed Order of Operations, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.
