Question 1804

RRB Group D 2025• General Intelligence and Reasoning• General Intelligence and Reasoning

What will come in the place of the question mark (?) in the following equation, if ‘+’ and ‘−’ are interchanged and ‘×’ and ‘÷’ are interchanged?

17 ÷ 5 − 25 + 42 × 7 = ?

AOption (a)

Correct answer

104

Why this answer is correct

Given: 17 ÷ 5 − 25 + 42 × 7 = ?

According to the question, after ‘+’ and ‘−’ are interchanged and ‘×’ and ‘÷’ are interchanged:

17 ÷ 5 − 25 + 42 × 7 = ? ⇒ 17 × 5 + 25 − 42 ÷ 7 = ?

⇒ 17 × 5 + 25 − 42 ÷ 7 = ?

⇒ 17 × 5 + 25 − 6 = ?

⇒ 85 + 25 − 6 = ?

⇒ 110 − 6 = ?

⇒ 104 = ?

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.
