If × means subtraction, ÷ means addition, + means division, and - means multiplication, then 8 × 4 ÷ 2 - 6 + 3 = ?
- 7
- 9
- 8
- 13
Correct answer: 8
Solution
Replace the symbols: × → -, ÷ → +, + → ÷, and - → ×. So the expression becomes 8 - 4 + 2 × 6 ÷ 3. Using BODMAS, 2 × 6 ÷ 3 = 4, then 8 - 4 + 4 = 8.
