Question

If A stands for +, B stands for -, C stands for then what is the value of (10C4) A (404) - 6?

• A. 50
• B. 20
• C. 56
• D. 60

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 50

Answer: 50

Based on the standard version of this logical reasoning problem, there are a couple of small typos in the text:

* C stands for $\times$ (Multiplication).

* The term (404) is a typo for (4C4).

* The expression - 6 represents B 6 (since B stands for -).

Rewriting the complete corrected expression gives:

$(10 \text{ C } 4) \text{ A } (4 \text{ C } 4) \text{ B } 6$

Now, replace the letters with their mathematical signs:

* A $\rightarrow +$

* B $\rightarrow -$

* C $\rightarrow \times$

$(10 \times 4) + (4 \times 4) - 6$

Following BODMAS rules, solve the operations inside the brackets first:

1. First Bracket: $10 \times 4 = 40$

2. Second Bracket: $4 \times 4 = 16$

3. Substitute back: $40 + 16 - 6$

4. Addition: $40 + 16 = 56$

5. Subtraction: $56 - 6 = 50$
