Follow the standard order for multi-operation arithmetic: grouping symbols, exponents and roots, multiplication or division, then addition or subtraction. Work left to right when operations have the same priority.

Keep an equality true by doing the same arithmetic move to both sides. Use balanced scales and number sentences to see why changing only one side breaks equality.
