Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

0

Solution :

The correct option is 0.

To find the value of the expression, we must apply the BODMAS (or PEMDAS) rule, which dictates the order of operations:
1. Bracket / Parentheses
2. Of / Order (Exponents)
3. Division and Multiplication (from left to right)
4. Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)

The given expression is:

72÷8-210÷15-5+2×5

First, we perform the division operations from left to right:

72÷8=9

210÷15=14

Substituting these values back into the expression, we get:

9-14-5+2×5

Next, we perform the multiplication operation:

2×5=10

Substituting this back into the expression gives:

9-14-5+10

Now, we perform addition and subtraction from left to right:

9-14=-5

So the expression becomes:

-5-5+10

Next:

-5-5=-10

Which leaves us with:

-10+10=0

Therefore, the value of the expression is 0.
