Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. - 47.

According to the given question,

27 ÷ 4 of 6 × [16 ÷ 8 × (12 − 8)] − (14 ÷ 7 × 28)

Applying the rule of BODMAS,

⇒ 27 ÷ 4 of 6 × [16 ÷ 8 × 4] − (2 × 28)

⇒ 27 ÷ 4 of 6 × [2 × 4] − 56

⇒ 27 ÷ 4 of 6 × 8 − 56

⇒ 27 ÷ 24 × 8 − 56

⇒ 9 − 56 = -47

Hence the required answer is -47.
