View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (d)D.
  • and ×

Why this answer is correct

1. × and ÷

8 + 32 × 16 ÷ 11 - 5 = 22

⇒ 8 + 32 × 1.45 - 5 = 22

⇒ 8 + 46.54 - 5 = 22

⇒ 54.54 - 5 = 22

⇒ 49.54 ≠ 22

2. - and +

8 - 32 ÷ 16 × 11 + 5 = 22

⇒ 8 + 2 × 11 - 5 = 22

⇒ 8 + 22 - 5 = 22

⇒ 30 - 5 = 22

⇒ 25 ≠ 22

3. ÷ and -

8 + 32 - 16 × 11 ÷ 5 = 22

⇒ 8 + 32 - 16 × 2.2 = 22

⇒ 8 + 32 - 35.2 = 22

⇒ 40 - 35.2 = 22

⇒ 4.8 ≠ 22

4. + and ×

8 × 32 ÷ 16 + 11 - 5 = 22

⇒ 8 × 2 + 11 - 5 = 22

⇒ 16 + 11 - 5 = 22

⇒ 27 - 5 = 22

⇒ 22 = 22

Hence, '+ and ×' is the correct answer.

Why this answer is correct

Statement:

Some envelopes are papers.

All paper are pulp.

All pulp are leaves.

Venn diagram:

Conclusion:

(I) Some leaves are papers → Follow → Since 'all papers are pulp' and 'all pulp are leaves' then it can be said that some leaves are papers and the same can be seen in the Venn diagram thus the conclusion follows.

(II) Some pulp is paper → Follow → We have 'all paper are pulp' which means there is some part of pulp that is connected to papers and therefore the conclusion follows.

(III) All papers are leaves → Follow → From the statements, 'all papers are pulp' and 'all pulp are leaves', it is safe to say that all papers are leaves as they are connected with a direct link i.e., pulp thus the conclusion follows.

So all conclusions I, II and III follow.

Hence the correct answer is option 1)
