Hi!

When following the order of operations, A. Parantheses (or brackets) come first. =)

Answer:

A. Parentheses.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the operation that should be performed first for calculations involving more than one arithmetic operation.

We use order of operations (PEMDAS) to solve a problem involving more than one arithmetic operation.

P = Parenthesis,

E = Exponent,

M/D = Multiplication or Division (Left to right)

A/S = Addition or subtraction (Left to right)

Therefore, we should remove parenthesis first in calculations involving more than one arithmetic operation.
