132 + 6 - 9 × 13 ÷ 31 = ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 180.

Given conditions: ÷ means -, - means ×, × means +, + means ÷

Given equation: 1132 + 6 - 9 × 13 ÷ 31 = ?

After interchanging the expression becomes:

(132 ÷ 6) × 9 + 13 - 31 =?

= (22 × 9) + 13 - 31

= (198 + 13) - 31

= 211 - 31

= 180

Hence, 180 is the correct answer.
