Apply the BODMAS rule (Bracket, Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction) strictly after substituting symbols.
Apply the BODMAS rule (Bracket, Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction) strictly after substituting symbols.
Substitution
Replace the letters with their respective mathematical signs in the equation 24 R 4 S 12 P 8 Q 16. The signs are R=├╖, S=├Ч, P=+, Q=-. The new equation is 24 ├╖ 4 ├Ч 12 + 8 - 16.
BODMAS Calculation
Solve following order of operations: First division (24 / 4 = 6), then multiplication (6 * 12 = 72), then addition (72 + 8 = 80), and finally subtraction (80 - 16 = 64).
A: Resulting from incorrect sequence (e.g. addition before multiplication), C: Resulting from wrong operation order, D: Resulting from calculation errors like subtracting 8 instead of 16.
B is correct because replacing R, S, P, and Q with ├╖, ├Ч, +, and - respectively and applying BODMAS yields 24 ├╖ 4 ├Ч 12 + 8 - 16 = 6 * 12 + 8 - 16 = 72 + 8 - 16 = 64.
Always perform division first in mathematical puzzles to simplify large numbers before moving to multiplication, as this minimizes calculation errors.
