If I denotes ‘÷’, J denotes ‘×’, K denotes ‘−’ and L denotes ‘+’, then what will come in place of ‘?’ in the following equation?
37 L 25 K (14 J 2) L (2 J 13) K (62 I 31) = ?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 58 .
Given equation is:
37 L 25 K (14 J 2) L (2 J 13) K (62 I 31)
I denotes ‘÷’, J denotes ‘×’, K denotes ‘−’ and L denotes ‘+’.
By replacing the letters with respective signs, the equation becomes
37 + 25 − (14 × 2) + (2 × 13) − (62 ÷ 31)
= 37 + 25 − 28 + 26 − 2
= 88 − 30
= 58
Hence, 58 is the correct answer.
