If A denotes '+', B denotes '×', C denotes '--', and D denotes '÷', then what will be the value of the following expression?

17 B 3 A 14 D 7 C 5 = ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 48.

Given equation: 17 B 3 A 14 D 7 C 5 =?

Given conditions: A denotes '+', B denotes '×', C denotes '-', and D denotes '÷'

After interchanging the expression becomes:

= 17 × 3 + 14 ÷ 7 - 5

= 17 × 3 + 2 - 5

= 51 + 2 - 5

= 53 - 5 ⇒ 48
