Correct option is C
Given:
1. The encoded operators are:
- B denotes + (addition),
- E denotes – (subtraction),
- D denotes × (multiplication).
2. Expression: 10B5E4D4.
Formula Used:
1. Replace the encoded operators with their respective mathematical symbols.
2. Follow the BODMAS rule (order of operations):
- Perform multiplication (×) first,
- Then addition (+),
- Finally subtraction (–).
Solution:
Step 1: Decode the Expression
10B5E4D4 = 10 + 5 - (4 × 4)
Step 2: Follow BODMAS Rule
1. Perform 4 × 4:
4 × 4 = 16
2. Replace and compute the remaining operations:
10 + 5 - 16
3. Perform addition:
10 + 5 = 15
4. Perform subtraction:
15 - 16 = -1
Final Answer:
The final result is -1.
