Mathematical Operations questions with solutions
If 'P' means '×', 'Q' means '+' and 'R' means '−', what is the value of the following expression? 9 P 7 Q 22 R 9
- (A)85
- (B)78
- (C)76
- (D)29
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (C) 76
Replacing the letters with the operations gives 9 × 7 + 22 − 9. Following BODMAS, multiply first: 63 + 22 − 9 = 76.
If 'P' means '×', 'Q' means '+' and 'R' means '−', what is the value of the following expression? 4 P 5 Q 21 R 5
- (A)15
- (B)41
- (C)25
- (D)36
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (D) 36
Replacing the letters with the operations gives 4 × 5 + 21 − 5. Following BODMAS, multiply first: 20 + 21 − 5 = 36.
If 'P' means '×', 'Q' means '+' and 'R' means '−', what is the value of the following expression? 4 P 9 Q 23 R 5
- (A)59
- (B)54
- (C)56
- (D)31
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (B) 54
Replacing the letters with the operations gives 4 × 9 + 23 − 5. Following BODMAS, multiply first: 36 + 23 − 5 = 54.
If 'P' means '×', 'Q' means '+' and 'R' means '−', what is the value of the following expression? 8 P 5 Q 17 R 7
- (A)57
- (B)50
- (C)23
- (D)52
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (B) 50
Replacing the letters with the operations gives 8 × 5 + 17 − 7. Following BODMAS, multiply first: 40 + 17 − 7 = 50.
