Correct Answer: 10


Solution : Given:
40 + [{(24 – 12) × (2 ÷ 2)} + (18 × 10)] = ?

After interchanging the given mathematical signs, we get –
= 40 ÷ [{(24 + 12) – (2 × 2)} ÷ (18 – 10)]
= 40 ÷ [{36 – 4} ÷ 8]
= 40 ÷ [32 ÷ 8]
= 40 ÷ 4
= 10

So, 10 is the answer to the given equation. Hence, the first option is correct.
