Answer the questions besed on the below information.
If '+' is 'x','-' is '+','x' is '÷' '÷' and is '-'
then `6-9+8x 6 ÷ 20=?`

Options

A. -2
B. 6
C. 10
D. 12

Answer

To solve the expression `6 - 9 + 8 x 6 ÷ 20` with the given operations transformed as follows:
- '+' becomes 'x' (multiplication)
- '-' becomes '+' (addition)
- 'x' becomes '÷' (division)
- '÷' becomes '-' (subtraction)

We will first rewrite the expression using the new operations:

1. **Rewrite the expression**:
- Original: `6 - 9 + 8 x 6 ÷ 20`
- Transformed: `6 + 9 x 8 ÷ 6 - 20`

2. **Perform the operations in the correct order** (following BODMAS/BIDMAS rules: Brackets, Orders, Division and Multiplication (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)):
- First, we handle multiplication and division from left to right:
- `9 x 8 = 72`
- Now the expression is: `6 + 72 ÷ 6 - 20`
- Next, perform the division: `72 ÷ 6 = 12`
- Now the expression is: `6 + 12 - 20`

3. **Continue with addition and subtraction from left to right**:
- First, perform the addition: `6 + 12 = 18`
- Now the expression is: `18 - 20`
- Finally, perform the subtraction: `18 - 20 = -2`

Thus, the final answer is **-2**.
