VENKATA SAI BHASKAR VELUVALI  (11 years ago)

9/15*9+2-9 is changed to 9-15/9*2+9
resolve it like (9)-(15*2)/9+(9)
=> 18-30/9
=>18-10/3 => (54-10)/3
=> 44/3=14.6666666666666666666
implies 14.7(approximately)

9-15/9*2+9
18-(15/9)*2
18-1.66*2
18-3.32
14.68=14.7(app.)

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes (12) | No

Given 9/15*9+2-9
After changing the values according the question
Data will be 9-15/9*2+9
when we start the solvin this there is a rule that we solve the section of more priority so here /or * has same priority. In that case we solve the first left hand side section.
9-(15/9)*2+9
=9-1.66667*2+9
=9-3.33334+9
=14.7
Ans is A

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes (9) | No   

Rajib Kumar Mandal  (11 years ago)

9-(15/9)*2+9
= 9-(30/9)+9
= 18-30/9
= 14.67

In this meaning is take / for *,take - for /,take * for +,take + for -
9/15*9+2-9=(9-15/9*2+9)=(9-1.66*2+9)=(9-3.3+9)=(5.7+9)=14.7
by using order of operators like /,*,+,-

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes (4) | No   

AVINASH KUMAR  (11 years ago)

given expression is
9/15*9+2-9
now according to question,
* stands for /,
/ stands for -,
+ stands for * and
-stands for +,
exchanging the signs accordingly we will get
9-15/9*2+9
now using BODMAS rule
9-30/9+9
9-10/3+9
9-3.33+9
18-3.33
14.67

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes (3) | No   

Anurag Rai  (11 years ago)

First we replace all the signs with their provided alternatives
9-15/9*2+9
Then we apply BODMAS rule
9-5/3*2+9
=9-10/3+9
=18-10/3
=14.67
Ans A
