Correct Answer :

Option A

108

Solution :

The correct answer is 108.

To simplify the given numerical expression, we follow the BODMAS (Brackets, Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction) rule for order of operations.

Given expression:

25 ÷ 5 × 7  of  ( 5 + 7 ) 13 ( 6 × 4 )

Step 1: Simplify terms inside the brackets (Brackets first).

5 + 7 = 12

6 × 4 = 24

Substituting these values back into the expression gives:

25 ÷ 5 × 7  of  12 13 × 24

Step 2: Evaluate the "Of" operation.
The "of" operation represents multiplication with higher priority than regular division and multiplication.

7  of  12 = 7 × 12 = 84

Substituting this back into the expression:

25 ÷ 5 × 84 13 × 24

Step 3: Perform Division and Multiplication operations.

First, perform the division from left to right:

25 ÷ 5 = 5

Next, perform multiplication on the left part:

5 × 84 = 420

Then, perform multiplication on the right part:

13 × 24 = 312

The expression simplifies to:

420 312

Step 4: Perform Subtraction.

420 312 = 108

Thus, the final simplified answer is 108.
