SSC CHSL 2024 PYQ — Question 71

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 16.

According to the given question,

$4{1\over4}×4{1\over4}-2 ×4{1\over4}×{1\over4}+{1\over4}×{1\over4}$

Applying the rule of BODMAS,

$4{1\over4}×4{1\over4}-2 ×4{1\over4}×{1\over4}+{1\over4}×{1\over4}$

⇒ ${17\over4}×{17\over4}-2 ×{17\over4}×{1\over4}+{1\over4}×{1\over4}$

⇒ ${289\over16}-{17\over8}+{1\over16}$

⇒ ${290\over16}-{17\over8}$

⇒ ${256\over16}$ = 16
