If ‘P’ denotes ‘×’, ‘T’ denotes ‘–’, ‘M’ denotes ‘+’ and ‘B’ denotes ‘÷’, then what is the value of 12 P 6 M 15 T 16 B 4?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → 83
Replace each letter by its sign, then work it out by BODMAS (multiplication and division before addition and subtraction).
With the signs: 12 × 6 + 15 – 16 ÷ 4
\(12\times6=72\)
\(16\div4=4\)
\(72+15-4=83\)
