Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 231.

 264−[142−(75+(38−(54+114))]264 - [142-{(75+(38-(\frac{5}{4}+\frac{11}{4}) )}]

⇒ 264−[142−(75+(38−(164))]264 - [142-{(75+(38-(\frac{16}{4}))}]

⇒ 264−[142−(75+(38−4))]264 - [142-{(75+(38-4))}]

⇒ 264−[142−(75+34)]264 - [142-{(75+34)}]

⇒ 264−[142−109]264 - [142-{109}]
