Find out the approximate value which should replace the question mark (?) in the following question. (1014.008/12.992) - 8.95 × 7.02 = ? - (504.04/8.984) + 20.054

Find out the approximate value which should replace the question mark (?) in the following question. (1014.008/12.992) - 8.95 × 7.02 = ? - (504.04/8.984) + 20.054 Correct Answer 51

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,

(1014.008/12.992) - 8.95 × 7.02 = ? - (504.04/8.984) + 20.054

Taking the approximate values as,

1014.008 ≈ 1014, 12.992 ≈ 13, 8.95 ≈ 9, 7.02 ≈ 7, 504.04 ≈ 504, 8.984 ≈ 9, 20.054 ≈ 20

⇒ (1014/13) - 9 × 7 = ? - (504/9) + 20

⇒ 78 - 63 = ? - 56 + 20

⇒ 15 = ? - 36
