60 × 10 ÷ 40 + 6 - 5?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e 16.

Understanding

Given equation: 60 × 10 ÷ 40 + 6 - 5

If + denotes  −; − denotes ×; × denotes ÷; ÷ denotes +

After replacement the equation becomes:

= 60 ÷ 10 + 40 - 6 × 5

= 6 + 40 - 6 × 5

= 6 + 40 - 30

= 46 - 30 

= 16

Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
