Question

If '$+$' means '$÷$' ,'$\times$' means '$-$','$÷$' means '$+$' and '$-$' means '$\times$', then $16÷8\times 6-2+12$=?

• A. $22$
• B. $24$
• C. $23$
• D. $20$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$23$

$16÷8\times 6-2+12=16+8-6\times 2÷12$

$=16+8-6\times \frac{2}{12}$

$=16+8-6\times \frac{1}{6}=16+8-1$

$=24-1=23$ (by $BODMAS$ rule)
