If 'A' stands for '÷', 'B' stands for 'x', 'C' stands for '+' and 'D' stands for '-', what will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following equation?
17 B 6 D 18 A 2 C 4 = ?
97

90
Correct answer
97
Why this answer is correct
Given Equation: 17 B 6 D 18 A 2 C 4 = ?
'A' stands for '÷', 'B' stands for 'x', 'C' stands for '+' and 'D' stands for '-'
17 B 6 D 18 A 2 C 4 = ?
17 x 6 - 18 ÷ 2 + 4 = ?
17 x 6 - 9+ 4 = ?
102 + 4 - 9 = ?
106 - 9 = ? 97. Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1"
Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements.
Statements:
Some tablets are capsules.
All capsules are injections.
Conclusions:
(I): Some tablets are injections.
(II): All injections are capsules.
Only conclusion (II) follows
Neither conclusion (I) nor (II) follows
Both conclusions (I) and (II) follow
Only conclusion (I) follows
Correct answer

The least possible Venn diagram is as follows:
Conclusions:
(I): Some tablets are injections.- True (Some tablets are capsules.All capsules are injections.Some tablets are injections is True)
(II): All injections are capsules. - False (Some tablets are capsules.All capsules are injections. Hence, it is false)
Only conclusion (I) follows
