Correct Answer :

Option B

28

Solution :

The correct option is 28.

To find the approximate value of the question mark (?), we can round each decimal value in the given equation to its nearest whole number or easy-to-calculate integer value.

Given equation:

840.03? + (7.99)3 = 90.03 % of 599.99 + 7.993


Step 1: Round off the numbers to their nearest approximations

• 840.03 ≈ 840
• 7.99 ≈ 8
• 90.03% ≈ 90%
• 599.99 ≈ 600
7.99383 = 2


Step 2: Substitute the approximated values back into the equation

840? + 83 = (90 % of 600) + 2


Step 3: Calculate the individual terms

83 = 8 × 8 × 8 = 512
• 90 % of 600 = 90100 × 600 = 90 × 6 = 540


Step 4: Rewrite and simplify the equation

840? + 512 = 540 + 2

840? + 512 = 542


Step 5: Solve for (?)

Subtract 512 from both sides of the equation:

840? = 542 - 512

840? = 30

Now, divide 840 by 30 to find the value of (?):

? = 84030

? = 28


Hence, the approximate value that comes in place of the question mark is 28.
