Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 3.2.

According to the given question, applying the rule of BODMAS,

(7.2 × 4.1 ÷ 12.3 + 22.5 of 125\frac{1}{25} - 110\frac{1}{10})

⇒ (7.2 × 4.1 ÷ 12.3 + 0.9 - 110\frac{1}{10})

⇒ (7.2 × 4.1 ÷ 12.3 + 0.9 - 0.1)

⇒ (7.2 × 131 \over 3 + 0.9 - 0.1)

 ⇒ (2.4 + 0.9 - 0.1)

 ⇒ 3.3 - 0.1 = 3.2

Hence the required answer is 3.2.
