See how the rules apply

Using 1, 2, 3 and 4 once each, (1 + 3) × (2 + 4) equals 24. Brackets determine which operations happen first. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Verify the rule before continuing.

Avoid this misunderstanding

Division and subtraction depend on selection order; zero division is blocked. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
