Answer: A. 38

Explanation

Here, we use the BODMAS table given below: Given: ⇒ 24 + 4 - 9 × 3 ÷ 6 After interchanging '+' and '-' & '×' and '÷' → ⇒ 24 - 4 + 9 ÷ 3 × 6 Apply BODMAS rule: ⇒ 24 - 4 + 9 ÷ 3 × 6 ⇒ 24 - 4 + 3 × 6 ⇒ 24 - 4 + 18 ⇒ 42 - 4 = 38 ⇒ '24 - 4 + 9 ÷ 3 × 6 = 38' Here, the value of the equation is '38'. Hence, the correct answer is "Option (1)".
