Question

    Directions (Q.26-30): In a certain instruction system the different computational processes are written as follows: a) P @ Q # R: means “sum of Q and R is subtracted from the cube of P.   b) P + Q * R: means “product of Q and R is subtracted from the square of P.   c) P < Q > R: means “Product of P and Q is added to product of P and R.   d) P $ Q % R: means “P percent of Q is added to  R.

    If 11 + 6 * 8 = b, then find the value of b < 4 > 5

    A 657 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 702 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 573 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 730 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    11 + 6* 8 = b ⇒ b  = 11² - (6 x  8) =121 – 48 = 73 b < 4 > 5  = 73 < 4 > 5 ⇒ (73 x 4) + (73 x 5) = 292 + 365 = 657
