If ‘+’ means ‘×’, ‘÷’ means ‘-’, ‘-’ means ‘+’, and ‘ב means ‘÷’. Which of the following will be the value of the expression?
12 + 5 - 24 × 3 ÷ 5
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 63.
Given equation: 12 + 5 - 24 × 3 ÷ 5
Given conditions: +’ means ‘×’, ‘÷’ means ‘-’, ‘-’ means ‘+’, and ‘ב means ‘÷’
After interchanging the expression becomes:
= 12 × 5 + 24 ÷ 3 - 5
= 12 × 5 + 8 - 5
= 60 + 8 - 5
= 68 - 5
= 63
Hence, 63 is the correct answer.
