Mathematical Operations questions with solutions
If 'P' means '×', 'Q' means '+' and 'R' means '−', what is the value of the following expression? 8 P 5 Q 19 R 1
- (A)31
- (B)39
- (C)59
- (D)58
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (D) 58
Replacing the letters with the operations gives 8 × 5 + 19 − 1. Following BODMAS, multiply first: 40 + 19 − 1 = 58.
If 'P' means '×', 'Q' means '+' and 'R' means '−', what is the value of the following expression? 8 P 8 Q 7 R 3
- (A)20
- (B)70
- (C)68
- (D)71
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (C) 68
Replacing the letters with the operations gives 8 × 8 + 7 − 3. Following BODMAS, multiply first: 64 + 7 − 3 = 68.
