Correct Answer: 70


Solution : Given:
A denotes addition, B denotes multiplication, C denotes subtraction, and D denotes division.
15 B (14 C 7) A 25 D (18 C 13) C 8 B (2 A 3) =?

After replacing letters with equivalent symbols, the equation becomes –
= 15 × (14 – 7) + 25 ÷ (18 – 13) – 8 × (2 + 3)
= 15 × 7 + 25 ÷ 5 – 8 × 5
= 105 + 5 – 40
= 70

So, after solving the equation the answer is 70. Hence, the third option is correct.
