I don't know what the E stands for, but I know what it means. P- Parenthases E - powers of M - Multiplication D - Devision A - Addition and S - subtraction. Although, I think you have the M and the D the wrong way around. It should be PEDMAS. It is the order in which you should do a sum. E.g.

4 + 4 x 4 = 20, not 32 as you should do the multiplication first, not the addition even though it comes before the multiplication in the sum. PEDMAS is a mnemonic to help you remember the order of the different functions you can use. Hope that helps.

In mr Fred's class the students are learning about the order of operations. Jefferson is frequently forgetting pemdas but George can remember it without the help of pemdas. How many Fs?

It is not clear how many times Jefferson forgets PEMDAS based on the given information. Additionally, the number of times George remembers PEMDAS without the help of PEMDAS is not stated. Therefore, it is not possible to determine the exact number of times Jefferson forgets PEMDAS or how many times George remembers it.
