If ‘A’ stands for ‘÷’, ‘B’ stands for ‘×’, ‘C’ stands for ‘+’ and ‘D’ stands for ‘-’, what will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following equation?
455 A 5 D 17 C 36 B 4 = ?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 218
455 A 5 D 17 C 36 B 4 = ?
After interchanging signs,
= (455 ÷ 5) - 17 + 36 × 4
= 91 - 17 + (36 × 4)
= 91 - 17 + 144
= 235 - 17
= 218
