Correct Answer :

Option B

80.41

Solution :

The correct answer is 80.41.

We need to simplify the expression following the BODMAS rule — working from the innermost brackets outward: ( ) first, then { }, then [ ].

The full expression is:

[ 325 × { 234 + 3.3 ( 513 + 313 - 213 ) } ]

Step 1: Convert all mixed numbers to improper fractions (or decimals).

325=175=3.4

234=114=2.75

513=163,313=103,213=73

Step 2: Solve the innermost ( ) bracket.

163 + 103 - 73 = 16+10-73 = 193

Step 3: Multiply 3.3 by the result of Step 2.

3.3×193 = 3310×193 = 33×1910×3 = 62730 = 20.9

Step 4: Solve the { } curly bracket.

2.75+20.9=23.65

Step 5: Solve the [ ] square bracket — multiply 3.4 by 23.65.

3.4×23.65 = (3×23.65) + (0.4×23.65) = 70.95+9.46 = 80.41

Therefore, the simplified value of the given expression is 80.41.
