Easy, if the question is- Its (5-0.5)x0.22=?

You do the parenthesis first- which equals 4.5 and then multiply it by 0.22. Therefore the answer would be 0.99. So, the people who posted above me are right.

So, remember, when doing order of operations: BEDMAS.

B-Brackets
E-Exponents
D-Division
M-Multiplication
A-Adding
S-Subtraction

But, division and multiplication could be switched around, which ever comes first on the page. Same with adding and subtracting.
