Correct Answer: 15


Solution : Given:
+ means divided by, –  means added to, × means subtracted from and ÷ means multiplied by
[{(25 × 13) – (3 ÷ 3)} + (3 – 4)] ÷ 5 = ?

After replacing the letters with the mathematical signs, we get:
= [{(25 – 13) + (3 × 3)} ÷ (3 + 4)] × 5
= [{12 + 9} ÷ 7] × 5
= [21 ÷ 7] × 5
= 3 × 5
= 15

So, 15 is the answer to the given equation. Hence, the third option is correct.
