What will come in place of question mark (?) in the following questions
`37.5 xx 14 + 800 - (26)^(2) + 136 = ?`

Options

A. 785
B. 800
C. 810
D. 825

Answer

To solve the equation \( 37.5 \times 14 + 800 - (26)^2 + 136 = ? \), we will follow the order of operations (BODMAS/BIDMAS).

### Step 1: Calculate \( 26^2 \)
First, we need to calculate \( 26^2 \):
\[ 26^2 = 676 \]

### Step 2: Substitute back into the equation
Now we substitute \( 676 \) back into the equation:
\[ 37.5 \times 14 + 800 - 676 + 136 \]

### Step 3: Calculate \( 37.5 \times 14 \)
Next, we calculate \( 37.5 \times 14 \):
\[ 37.5 \times 14 = 525 \]

### Step 4: Substitute back into the equation
Now substitute \( 525 \) back into the equation:
\[ 525 + 800 - 676 + 136 \]

### Step 5: Perform the addition and subtraction
Now, we will perform the addition and subtraction step by step:
1. Add \( 525 + 800 \):
\[ 525 + 800 = 1325 \]
2. Subtract \( 676 \):
\[ 1325 - 676 = 649 \]
3. Finally, add \( 136 \):
\[ 649 + 136 = 785 \]

### Final Answer
Thus, the value of the question mark \( ? \) is:
\[ ? = 785 \]
