Symbol remapping — If “+” denotes “÷”, “−” denotes “×”, “×” denotes “−”, and “÷” denotes “+”, evaluate: 35 + 7 − 5 ÷ 5 × 6

Introduction / Context:When operators are redefined, first translate each symbol to its true operation, then evaluate with normal precedence (× and ÷ first, then + and −).

Given Data / Assumptions:

• “+” → “÷”
• “−” → “×”
• “×” → “−”
• “÷” → “+”

Concept / Approach:Replace meticulously, then compute stepwise.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:Regrouping gives the same result: (35 ÷ 7) × 5 + 5 − 6 = 24.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:They arise from mixing up the mapping or ignoring precedence.

Common Pitfalls:

• Treating the remapped symbols as if their precedence changed; precedence follows the actual operation after mapping.
