Mathematical Operations Questions and Answers for Bank PO, SO, Clerk Exams Pdf

1. If + stands for x, - for ÷, x for – and ÷ for +, find the value of 26 + 74 – 4 × 5
÷ 2.

a. 220

b. 376

c. 478

d. 488

Ans: C

Using the correct symbols, we have:

Given expression = 26 × 74 ÷ 4 – 5 + 2 = 26 × 37/2 - 5 + 2

= 13 × 37 - 5 + 2 = 481 - 5 + 2 = 478.

2. If P denotes ÷, Q denotes x, R denotes + and S denotes -, then what is the value of 18 Q 12 p 4
R5S6?

a. 53

b. 59

c. 63

d. 65

Ans: A

Using the correct symbols, we have :

Given expression = 18 × 12 ÷ 4 + 5 - 6 = 18 × 3 + 5 - 6

= 54 + 5 - 6 = 59 - 6 = 53.

3. If + means ÷, ÷ means -, - means x, x means +, then 12 + 6 ÷ 3 - 2 × 8 = ?

a. – 2

b. 2

c. 4

d. 8
Ans: C

Using the correct symbols, we have :

Given expression = 12 ÷ 6 – 3 × 2 + 8 = 2 – 6 + 8 = 10 – 6 = 4.

4. If A stands for +, B stands for -, C stands for x, then what is the value of (10 C 4) A (4 C 4) B 6 ?

a. 60

b. 56

c. 50

d. 46 -

Ans: C

Using the correct symbols, we have :

Given expression = (10 × 4) + (4 × 4) - 6

= 40 + 16 – 6

= 56 - 6 = 50.

5. If x means -, + means ÷, - means x and &divide means +, then 15 – 2 ÷ 900 + 90 ×
100 = ?

a. 190

b. 180

c. 90

d. None of these

Ans: D

Using the correct symbols, we have :

Given expression = 15 x 2 + 900 ÷ 90 - 100 = 30 + 10 - 100 = - 60.
