Directions : In the following question you have to identify the correct response from the given premises stated according to following symbols:

Q 4238) If ÷ means +,  x means -, then

(12 x 9) ÷ (13 x 4) x (5 ÷ 5) is equal to:

(A) 2    (B) 3    (C) 4    (D) 5

Ans: (A) 2

Solution

Given expression

(12 x 9) ÷ (13 x 4) x (5 ÷ 5) = ?

After changing the sign

(12 – 9) + (13 – 4) – (5 + 5)

3 + 9 – 10 = 2

Q 4239) Put the correct mathematical signs in the following equation from the given alternatives.

9___? 6___? 2___? 8 = 9

(A) ÷, -, +    (B) -, ÷, +    (C) +, -, ÷    (D) x, ÷, –

Ans:  (D) x, ÷, –

Solution

9 x 6 ÷ 2 – 8 = 9

Q 4240) If x stands for -, ÷ stands for +, + stands for x, find the value of the following equation:

(18 x 5) ÷ 5 + 3 = ?

(A) 23    (B) 28    (C) 37    (D) 42

Ans: (B) 28

Solution

Given expression

(18 x 5) ÷ 5 + 3 = ?

After changing the sign

(18 – 5) + 5 x 3 = ?

13 + 15 = 28

Q 4241) If P means x, Q means -, R means ÷, and S means +, then what will be the value of following expression:

(48 R 2) S (8 P 4)

(A) 44    (B) 48    (C) 52    (D) 56

Ans: (D) 56

Solution

Given expression

(48 R 2) S (8 P 4)

After changing the sign

(48 ÷ 2) + (8 x 4)

24 + 32 = 56

Q 4242) If  ÷ stands for * , – stands for #,  x stands for @, and + stands for %, then which of the following statements is correct?

(A) 84 * 12 @ 5 # 28 = 7

(B) 84 # 12 @ 5 * 28 = 12

(C) 84 * 12 # 5 @ 28 = 17

(D) 84 @ 12 * 5 # 28 = 19

Ans: (A) 84 * 12 @ 5 # 28 = 7

Solution

Option (A)

84 ÷ 12 x 5 – 28 = 7

7 x 5 – 28 = 7

Q 4243) Some equations are solved on the basis of a certain system. Find out the correct answer for the unsolved equation on that basis if,

4 + 4 = 20,  5 + 5 = 30, and 7 + 7 = 56, what is 6 + 6 = ?

(A) 36    (B) 38    (C) 40    (D) 42

Ans: (D) 42

Solution

4 x 4 + 4 = 20, 5 x 5 + 5 + 30,  7 x 7 + 7 = 56, therefore, 6 x 6 + 6 = 42

Q 4244) Which one of the following is correct?

64 * 8 * 4 * 2

(A) =, x, ÷

(B) =, ÷, x

(C) x, =, ÷

(D) ÷, =, x

Ans: (D) ÷, =, x

Solution

Given expression

64 * 8 * 4 * 2

64 ÷ 8 = 4 x 2

8 = 8
