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) (51.84 × 5.96) ÷ 12.82 = 9.81 + ?% of 199.77

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) (51.84 × 5.96) ÷ 12.82 = 9.81 + ?% of 199.77 Correct Answer 7

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,

⇒ (51.84 × 5.96) ÷ 12.82 = 9.81 + ?% of 199.77

We can write the given values as:

⇒ 51.84 ≈ 52 and 5.96 ≈ 6 and 12.82 ≈ 13

⇒ 9.81 ≈ 10 and 199.77 ≈ 200

Then,

⇒ (52 × 6) ÷ 13 = 10 + (?/100) × 200

⇒ 312 ÷ 13 = 10 + (?/100) × 200

⇒ 24 = 10 + (?/100) × 200

⇒ 24 = 10 + (? × 2)

⇒ 24 - 10 = ? × 2

⇒ ? × 2 = 14

⇒ ? = 14/2

∴ ? ≈ 7
