If L denotes ‘×’, M denotes ‘+’, P denotes ‘÷’ and Q denotes ‘–’, then what is the value of 96 P 6 M 24 Q 8 M 2 L 3?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → 38
Replace each letter by its sign, then work it out by BODMAS (division and multiplication before addition and subtraction).
With the signs: 96 ÷ 6 + 24 – 8 + 2 × 3
\(96\div6=16\)
\(2\times3=6\)
\(16+24-8+6=38\)
