Correct Answer :

Option A

54

Solution :

The correct answer is Option 54.


Let the unknown value represented by the question mark (?) be x.


The given mathematical equation is:

486÷x×7392÷66=1008


Following the rules of BODMAS/PEMDAS, division and multiplication operations are evaluated from left to right. We can rewrite the expression in fractional form:

486x×739266=1008


First, simplify the division 7392÷66:

7392÷66=112


Substitute this simplified value back into the equation:

486x×112=1008


Now, multiply both sides by x and rearrange to solve for x:

486×112=1008×x


x=486×1121008


Simplify the fraction step-by-step:

Divide 1008 by 112:

1008÷112=9


Now, substitute this result back into the fraction for x:

x=4869


Divide 486 by 9:

x=54


Thus, the value that replaces the question mark (?) is 54.
