What will come in the place of ‘?’ in the following equation, if ‘+’ and ‘x’ are interchanged and ‘-’ and ‘÷’ are interchanged?
15 ÷ 36 − 18 + 0 × 25 = ?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Original equation:
15 ÷ 36 − 18 + 0 × 25
Switching signs:
15 − 36 ÷ 18 × 0 + 25
Now according to BODMAS:
36 ÷ 18 = 2
2 × 0 = 0
So,
15 − 0 + 25 = 40
Hence, the correct answer is:
B) 40
