74 × 2.5 + 13 × 5 =?
What will come in the place of question (?) mark in the following question.

The correct option is 250.

To solve the given expression, we follow the order of operations (BODMAS/PEMDAS), which dictates that multiplication should be performed before addition.

The expression is:

$74\times 2.5+13\times 5$

Step 1: Perform the first multiplication ($74\times 2.5$)

We can break down 2.5 into $\frac{5}{2}$ to simplify the calculation:
$74\times 2.5=74\times \frac{5}{2}$
$=37\times 5$
$=185$

Step 2: Perform the second multiplication ($13\times 5$)

$13\times 5=65$

Step 3: Add the results of the two multiplications

$185+65=250$

Thus, the value that comes in place of the question mark (?) is 250.
