What approximate value should come in the place of the question mark (?) in the following question? (You are not expected to calculate the exact value) (119.81 ÷ 59.79) × 180.10 = 39.71 × 8.25 + ?

What approximate value should come in the place of the question mark (?) in the following question? (You are not expected to calculate the exact value) (119.81 ÷ 59.79) × 180.10 = 39.71 × 8.25 + ? Correct Answer 40

Follow BODMAS rule to solve this question, as per the order given below,

Step-1- Parts of an equation enclosed in 'Brackets' must be solved first, and in the bracket,

Step-2- Any mathematical 'Of' or 'Exponent' must be solved next,

Step-3- Next, the parts of the equation that contain 'Division' and 'Multiplication' are calculated,

Step-4- Last but not least, the parts of the equation that contain 'Addition' and 'Subtraction' should be calculated.

Given expression is,

⇒ (119.81 ÷ 59.79) × 180.10 = 39.71 × 8.25 + ?

We can write the given values as:

⇒ 119.81 ≈ 120 and 59.79 ≈ 60 and 180.10 ≈ 180

⇒ 39.71 ≈ 40 and 8.25 ≈ 8

Then,

⇒ (120 ÷ 60) × 180 = 40 × 8 + ?

⇒ 2 × 180 = 40 × 8 + ?

⇒ 360 = 40 × 8 + ?

⇒ 360 = 320 + ?

⇒ ? = 360 - 320

∴ ? ≈ 40
