Options- A. 49 + 7 - 3 x 5 ÷ 8 = 20
- B. 49 - 7 + 3 ÷ 5 x 8 = 24
- C. 49 x 7 + 3 ÷ 5 - 8 = 16
- D. 49 ÷ 7 x 3 + 5 - 8 = 26
- Correct Answer
- 49 - 7 + 3 ÷ 5 x 8 = 24
ExplanationTry all option one by one;
From option ( b )
49 - 7 + 3 ÷ 5 x 8 = 24
Change the sign, as per the question,
49 ÷ 7 x 3 - 5 + 8 = 24
Apply the BODMAS rule
B - Brackets first
O - Orders (i.e. Powers and Square Roots, etc.)
DM - Division and Multiplication (left-to-right)
AS - Addition and Subtraction (left-to-right)
Now Applying the BODMAS rule one by one.
49 ÷ 7 x 3 - 5 + 8 = 24
After Division
7 x 3 - 5 + 8 = 24
After Multiplication
21 - 5 + 8 = 24
After Addition
29 - 5 = 24
After subtraction
24 = 24 - 1. If ' + ' mean ' - ' , ' - ' means ' x ', ' x ' means ' ÷ ' and ' ÷ ' means ' + ' , then the value of
16 x 2 ÷ 25 + 7 - 4 is.
