Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 32\frac{3}{2}.

51 ÷ {25 + (25 of 12 ÷ 30) - (5 4 ÷ 5 of 125)}

By applying the BODMAS rule

⇒ 51 ÷ {25 + (25 of 252\over5) - (5 4 ÷ 5 of 125)}

⇒ 51 ÷ {25 + 10 - (5 4 ÷ 5 of 125)}

⇒ 51 ÷ {25 + 10 - (625 ÷ 625)}

⇒ 51 ÷ {25 + 10 - 1}

⇒ 513451\over34 = 323\over2
