Statements 1, 3, and 4 are correct.
36×?² + (25% of 208 +13) = 60% of 2400 + 17×18
? × 5.5 = √1225 + 40% of 30% of 37.5% of 5000 – 63
The value of (43-3× (4×6+12/6 ×6-4×5) +4)?
960 ÷ 12 + 1200 ÷ √144 + ? = 180 * 3
315 ÷ 9 + 23 × 3+ 22 = ?× √441
What will come in the place of question mark (?) in the given expression?
7 X 18 + ? = (52 - 6) X 9
What will come in the place of question mark (?) in the given expression?
(28/14) of 56 + ? = 920 ÷ 5
?2 × 25 = 42 × 21 + 172Â
8 × 25% of ? = 400
- 45% of 160 – 25% of 80 = 20% of ?
