3.2z(0.56 y 1.4 x 4) w 5 x 5 y 25 z 5.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 8.8.

Given equation: 3.2 z (0.56 y 1.4 x 4) w 5 x 5 y 25 z 5

On replacing the letters: 

3.2 + (0.56 ÷ 1.4 × 4) - 5 × 5 ÷ 25 + 5

3.2 + 1.6 - 1 + 5

9.8 - 1 = 8.8
