Apply BODMAS strictly: solve Division, then Multiplication, then Addition/Subtraction to prevent operator priority errors.

Symbol Replacement
Replace the symbols in 8 @ 5% 6 $10 # 2 with the given operators: 8 * 5 - 6 + 10 / 2.
Applying BODMAS
Solve Division first: 10 / 2 = 5. The expression becomes 8 * 5 - 6 + 5. Next, multiply: 8 * 5 = 40. The expression becomes 40 - 6 + 5.
Final Calculation
Solve subtraction and addition from left to right: 40 - 6 = 34, then 34 + 5 = 39.
A: 38 is incorrect as it results from miscalculating the order of operations; B: 37 is incorrect as it ignores the BODMAS division sequence; D: 36 is incorrect as it results from incorrect arithmetic during final summation.
C is correct because the mathematical expression 8 * 5 - 6 + (10 / 2) simplifies sequentially to 40 - 6 + 5, which equals 39.
In any symbol substitution question, always rewrite the full equation with standard operators before starting calculation to avoid missing the division or multiplication steps.
