If ‘P’ means addition, ‘D’ means subtraction, ‘S’ means multiplication, and ‘V’ means division, find the value of \{24P(18D6)\}V(6S2)P12V(6).

1. - 5
2. 5
3. 10
4. - 10

Correct answer: 5

Solution

Replace the symbols: \{24 + (18 - 6)\} ÷ (6 × 2) + 12 ÷ 6. This becomes \{24 + 12\} ÷ 12 + 2 = 36 ÷ 12 + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5.
