27.35 – [16.32 – (273.19 + 281.32) ÷ 2.066]

A 32

B 48

C 78

D 1

E 99      

Solution

Correct Answer: Option B

Follow BODMAS rule to solve this question, as per the order is given below,

Step - 1 - Parts of an equation enclosed in 'Brackets' must be solved first,

Step - 2 - Any mathematical 'Of' or 'Exponent' must be solved next,

Step - 3 - Next, the parts of the equation that contains 'Division' and 'Multiplication' are calculated,

Step - 4 - Last but not least, the parts of the equation that contains 'Addition' and 'Subtraction' should be calculated.

∵ We have to find the approximate value, we can approximate the given expression.

∴ 27.35 ≈ 27, 16.3 ≈ 16, 273.19 ≈ 273, 281.32 ≈ 281, 2.066 ≈ 2

The given expression is,

27.35 – [16.32 – (273.19 + 281.32) ÷ 2.066]

≈ 27 – [162 – (273 + 281) ÷ 2]

= 27 – [256 – 554/2]

= 27 – 256 + 277

= 48
