If A denotes ‘+’, B denotes ‘×’, C denotes ‘−’, and D denotes ‘÷’, then what will be the value of the following equation?

16 B 5 A 112 D 8 C 32 =?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 62.

Given conditions: A denotes ‘+’, B denotes ‘×’, C denotes ‘−’, and D denotes ‘÷’

Given equation: 16 B 5 A 112 D 8 C 32 =?

After interchanging the expression becomes:

= 16 × 5 + 112 ÷ 8 − 32

= 16 × 5 + 14 − 32

= 80 + 14 − 32

= 94 - 32 = 62
