  • B. 223/168
  • C. 323/168
  • D. 423/168

  • Correct Answer
  • 123/168 

    Explanation

    ? = [5 -[3/4 + {21/2 - (1/2 + 1/6 - 1/7)}]]/2
    = [5 - [3/4 + {5/2 -(1/2 + 7 - 6/42)}]]/2
    = [5 - [3/4 + {5/2 - (1/2 + 1/42)}]]/2
    = [5 - [3/4 + {5/2 - (21 + 1 /42)}]]/2
    = [5 - [3/4 + {5/2 - 22/42}]]/2
    = [5 - [3/4 + {105 - 22/42}]]/2
    = [5 - [3/4 + 83/42]] / 2
    = [5 - [63 + 166/84]]/2
    = (191/84)/2
    =191/168 = 123/168
