Correct answer
106
Why this answer is correct
Here, we use the BODMAS table given below:
As per the given information:
| Symbols | Means |
|---|---|
| + | - |
| - | × |
| × | ÷ |
| ÷ | + |
Given:
⇒ 13 – 145 × 29 ÷ 52 + 11 = ?
After replacing the sign as per the table:
⇒ 13 × 145 ÷ 29 + 52 - 11
Apply BODMAS rule:
⇒ 13 × 5 + 52 - 11
⇒ 65 + 52 - 11
⇒ 117 - 11 = 106
⇒ '13 × 145 ÷ 29 + 52 - 11 = 106'
Hence, the correct answer is "Option (1)".
