Correct Answer :

Option A

2 43 120

Solution :

The correct answer is 243120.

To find the value of the given expression, we follow the order of operations (BODMAS / PEMDAS) by simplifying step-by-step from the innermost brackets to the outermost brackets.

Given expression:
514-[312-{56-(35×110÷415)}]

Step 1: Simplify inside the innermost round brackets (parentheses).
First, convert division into multiplication by taking the reciprocal of 415:
35×110÷415=35×110×154
Simplify by canceling out the common factor of 5 in the numerator and denominator:
=3×1×31×10×4=940

Step 2: Simplify inside the curly braces.
Subtract the result from 56:
56-940
The least common multiple (LCM) of denominators 6 and 40 is 120:
=5×20120-9×3120
=100120-27120=73120

Step 3: Simplify inside the square brackets.
Convert 312 into an improper fraction:
312=72
Now subtract 73120 from 72:
72-73120
The LCM of 2 and 120 is 120:
=7×60120-73120
=420120-73120=347120

Step 4: Perform the final subtraction.
Convert 514 into an improper fraction:
514=214
Subtract the simplified bracketed value:
214-347120
The LCM of 4 and 120 is 120:
=21×30120-347120
=630120-347120=283120

Step 5: Convert the improper fraction back into a mixed fraction.
283120=243120

Therefore, the value of the given expression is 243120.
