Always do the X and / first and in order.
4-(5x6) +7 = 4-30+7 = 19

Multiplication and division are done before addition and subtraction. The way to get around that is to put addition or subtraction in parentheses (brackets), which indicates that they take precedence. After all of that, the problem is worked left to right.

When I saw this question, it sent me flying back many, many years to the way I was taught how to formulate an equation. It's My Dear Aunt Sally (as the other answer reads, multiply, divide, add and subtract).

PEMDAS=parenthesis. exponents. multiply. divide. add. subtract.
So in this case you would multiply 5 x 6 first
