Question

If 'A' stands for '+', 'B' stands for '-', 'C' stands for '×' and 'D' stands for '÷', then what will be the value of the given expression?
35A 25B 12C 25D 5

• A. 5
• B. 0
• C. 10
• D. 2

Hint:

Always follow the BODMAS (Bracket, Order, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction) rule while solving such expressions.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Let’s first decode the expression using the provided values for 'A', 'B', 'C', and 'D': - 'A' stands for \(+\), 'B' stands for \(-\), 'C' stands for \(\times\), and 'D' stands for \(\div\). The expression becomes: \[ 35 + 25 - 12 \times 25 \div 5 \] Following the order of operations (BODMAS/PEDMAS): - First, perform multiplication and division: \[ 12 \times 25 = 300 \quad \text{and} \quad 300 \div 5 = 60 \] Now, the expression becomes: \[ 35 + 25 - 60 \] - Next, perform addition and subtraction from left to right: \[ 35 + 25 = 60 \] \[ 60 - 60 = 0 \]
Thus, the value of the expression is \(0\).
Therefore, the correct answer is (B) 0.
