Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

0.125

Solution :

The correct answer is 0.125.

To evaluate the given expression step-by-step, we follow the order of operations (BODMAS/PEMDAS), performing the operation inside the parentheses first before carrying out the division.

Step 1: Solve the expression inside the parentheses.

We need to multiply 0.05 by 6.25:

0.05×6.25=0.3125

Step 2: Perform the division.

Now, substitute the result back into the main expression and divide by 2.5:

0.3125÷2.5

To simplify the decimal division, we can express it as a fraction:

0.31252.5

Multiplying the numerator and the denominator by 10 to clear the decimal from the denominator gives:

3.12525

Now, perform the division:

3.125÷25=0.125

Thus, the value that replaces the question mark (?) is 0.125.
