$\frac{1}{6}$ of 43+98% of 12.01- 3.89 of 2=?

What approximate value will come in place of question mark (?) in the following questions? (You are not expected to calculate the exact value)

The correct option is 11.

We need to find the approximate value of the following expression:

$\frac{1}{6}$ of 43 + 98% of 12.01 - 3.89 of 2 = ?

Let us approximate each component of the expression step-by-step:

Step 1: Approximate $\frac{1}{6}$ of 43

Since 43 is very close to 42 (which is divisible by 6):

$\frac{1}{6}\times 43\approx \frac{1}{6}\times 42=7$

Step 2: Approximate 98% of 12.01

We can approximate 98% as 100% (or 1) and 12.01 as 12:

$98\%\times 12.01\approx 1\times 12=12$

Step 3: Approximate 3.89 of 2

We can approximate 3.89 as 4:

$3.89\times 2\approx 4\times 2=8$

Step 4: Combine all the approximated values

Now, substitute the approximated values back into the original expression:

$?\approx 7+12-8$

$?\approx 19-8$

$?\approx 11$

Thus, the approximate value that comes in place of the question mark is 11.
