Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 9

Concept used:

BODMAS rule

B = Bracket

O = Of

M = Multiplication

A = Addition

S = Subtraction

Calculations:

⇒ 25+4−16+9814−18625 + 4 - {16 + {98\over 14} - {18\over 6}}

⇒ 29 - {16 + 7 - 3}

⇒ 29 - 20 = 9

Hence the value of [25 + 8 ÷ 2 - {16 + (14 of 7 ÷ 14) - (18 ÷ 12 of 12\frac{1}{2})}] is 9.
