If ‘+’ means ‘×’, ‘−’ means ‘+’, ‘×’ means ‘÷’, and ‘÷’ means ‘−’, then find the value of:
18 − 6 + 12 × 3 ÷ 2

Question

Accepted Answer

1. Replace each operator: '−' → '+', '+' → '×', '×' → '÷', '÷' → '−'. So the expression becomes $18+6	imes12\div3-2$.
2. Do multiplication and division first: $6	imes12=72$, and $72\div3=24$.
3. Now add and subtract: $18+24-2=40$.
4. The value is **40**, so the correct choice is (b).
