Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 1.

 7.5 × 17.2 ÷ 8.6 +(59.5) of 117−72 of 5=?7.5\,\times\, 17.2\, \div\,8.6\,+(59.5)\,of\,\frac{1}{17}-\frac{7}{2}\, of\, 5=?

Applying BODMAS

⇒ 7.5 × 17.2 ÷ 8.6 +(3.5)−352=?7.5\,\times\, 17.2\, \div\,8.6\,+(3.5)-\frac{35}{2}=?

⇒ 7.5 × 17.2 ÷ 8.6 +(3.5)−17.5=?7.5\,\times\, 17.2\, \div\,8.6\,+(3.5)-17.5=?

⇒ 7.5 ×2 +(3.5)−17.5=?7.5\,\times2\,+(3.5)-17.5=?

⇒ 15  +(3.5)−17.5=?15\,\,+(3.5)-17.5=?

⇒ 18.5−17.5=?18.5-17.5=?

⇒ ? = 1
