Correct Answer :

Option A

17

Solution :

The correct option is 17.


We are given the algebraic equation:

78×26÷6+1262=1311+?2


Let the unknown value represented by the question mark (?) be x. The equation becomes:

78×26÷6+1262=1311+x2


Step 1: According to BODMAS/PEMDAS rules, division and multiplication are calculated first from left to right. Divide 26 by 6 or simplify the multiplication/division part:

78÷6=13


Now multiply 13 by 26:

13×26=338


Step 2: Substitute 338 back into the left side of the equation and add 1262:

338+1262=1600


Step 3: Set the simplified left side equal to the right side of the equation:

1600=1311+x2


Subtract 1311 from both sides to isolate x2:

x2=1600-1311


x2=289


Step 4: Take the square root of both sides to solve for x:

x=289=17


Thus, the value coming in place of question mark (?) is 17.
