    Question

    If '×\times' means '÷\div','÷\div means ' + ', ' + ' means ' – ', ' – ' means '×\times​ ', what will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following equation? 
    2 - ( 684 + 228 ×\times 19 ) ×\times 21 ÷\div 4 = ?​

    A.

    60

    B.

    68

    C.

    65

    D.

    62

    Correct option is B

    Given: ​2 - ( 684 + 228 ×\times​ 19 )×\times​ 21÷\div​ 4 = ?
    Original Sign
    ×\times​​
    ÷\div​​
    +
    -
    New Sign
    ÷\div​​
    +
    -
    ×\times
     The given equation is solved by BODMAS table:
    Operation preference wiseSymbolBrackets[],,()Orders, of(power),(root),ofDivision÷Multiplication×Addition+Subtraction\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline\textbf{Operation preference wise} & \textbf{Symbol} \\\hline\text{Brackets} &[],{}, () \\ \hline \text{Orders, of} & (power), √ (root) , of \\ \hline \text{Division}& ÷ \\ \hline \text{Multiplication} & × \\ \hline \text{Addition} & + \\ \hline \text{Subtraction} & - \\\hline\end{array}
    New equation is 2 ×\times (684 - 228 ÷\div 19 ) ÷\div 21 + 4
    = 2 ×\times 684 - 12 ÷\div 21 + 4
    = 2 ×\times 672 ÷\div 21 + 4
    = 2 ×\times 32 + 4​
    = 64 + 4
    = 68
    Thus, correct option is (b).
