If 37 D 18 E 84 F 21 = 51 and 57 D 28 E 90 F 15 = 79, then 14 D 17 E 8 F 4 = ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 29.

The codes used here is:

D ⇒ +, E ⇒ -, F ⇒ ÷

Equation: 37 D 18 E 84 F 21 = 51

⇒ 37 + 18 - (84 ÷ 21) = 51

⇒ 37 + 18 - 4 = 51

⇒ 55 - 4 = 51

and 57 D 28 E 90 F 15 = 79

⇒ 57 + 28 - (90 ÷ 15) = 79

⇒ 57 + 28 - 6 = 79

⇒ 85 - 6 = 79

Similarly, 14 D 17 E 8 F 4 = ?

⇒ 14 + 17 - (8 ÷ 4) = ?

⇒ 14 + 17 - 2 = ?

⇒ 31 - 2 = 29

Hence, the correct answer is 29.
