If ‘P’ stands for ‘÷’, ‘Q’ stands for ‘×’, ‘R’ stands for ‘+’ and ‘S’ stands for ‘−’, what will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following equation?

45 R (26 Q 2) P 4 R 19 S 32 = ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e.45.

45 R (26 Q 2) P 4 R 19 S 32 = ?

After interchangeing signs, 

= 45 + (26 × 2) ÷ 4 + 19 - 32

= 45 + 52 ÷ 4 - 13

= 45 + 13 - 13

= 45
