B. 257.75
C. 277.25
D. 257.25

Explanation

To solve the equation \( 8282 + 2828 = ? \times 40 \), we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Add the two numbers
First, we need to calculate the sum of \( 8282 \) and \( 2828 \).

\[ 8282 + 2828 = 11110 \]

### Step 2: Set up the equation
Now we can set up the equation based on the problem statement. We have:

\[ 11110 = ? \times 40 \]

Let’s denote the question mark as \( x \).

\[ 11110 = 40x \]

### Step 3: Solve for \( x \)
To find \( x \), we need to divide both sides of the equation by \( 40 \):

\[ x = \frac{11110}{40} \]

### Step 4: Perform the division
Now we will perform the division:

\[ x = 277.75 \]

### Step 5: Write the answer
Thus, the value of the question mark is:

\[ x = 277.75 \]
