Question

Value of $124\times 4-3+118÷2$ is equal to

• A. $552$
• B. $496$
• C. $553$
• D. $-553$

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

$552$

We know that the BODMAS rule says:

B → Brackets first (parentheses)

O → Of (orders i.e. Powers and Square Roots, Cube Roots, etc.)

DM → Division and Multiplication (start from left to right)

AS → Addition and Subtraction (start from left to right)

Consider the given expression $124\times 4-3+118÷2$ and solve it using BODMAS as follows:

$(124\times 4)-3+(118÷2)=496-3+(118÷2)=(496-3)+59=493+59=552$

Hence, $124\times 4-3+118÷2=552$
