Question

If ‘–‘ stands for ‘÷’, ‘+’ stands for ‘×’, ‘÷’ stands for ‘–‘, and ‘×’ stands for ‘+’, which one of the following questions is correct?

A. 30 + 6 – 5 ÷ 4 × 2 = 31

B. 30 ÷ 6 × 5 + 4 – 2 = 44

C. 30 – 6 + 5 × 4 ÷ 2 = 27

D. 30 × 6 ÷ 5 – 4 + 2 = 32

Answer: C

Solution:

30 ÷ 6 × 5 + 4 – 2 = 27

→ 5 × 5 + 4 – 2 = 27

→ 29 – 2 = 27

→ 27 = 27
