The value of (12 + 18) ÷ 2 − 11 + 16 × 4 − 28 + 13(−18 + 15) is:
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 1.
Applying the rule of BODMAS in the given question,
(12 + 18) ÷ 2 − 11 + 16 × 4 − 28 + 13(−18 + 15)
⇒ 30 ÷ 2 − 11 + 16 × 4 − 28 + 13(−3)
⇒ 30 ÷ 2 − 11 + 16 × 4 − 28 - 39
⇒ 15 − 11 + 16 × 4 − 28 - 39
⇒ 15 − 11 + 64 − 28 - 39
⇒ 79 - 78 = 1
Hence the required answer is 1.
