SYMBOL REPRESENTATION
 
This sections deals with question on simple mathematical operation namely ÷, x, + & - along with others namely ‹, =, ›, ≠ etc. These operations are coded using artificial symbols.
The candidate has to make substitution of real signs and then by using DMAS formula, solve the question.
 
Example 1.
If + means ÷, - means x, ÷ means + and x means -, then the value of 36x12+4÷6+2-3
When simplified is :-
a)2
b) 18
c) 42
d) 19/2
Answer : C
 
Solution –
Using proper signs:-
36-12÷4+6÷2x3
= 36-3+3x3
= 36-3+9
= 42
So the correct answer is (c)
 
Example 2.
If P denotes ÷, Q denotes x, R denotes +, S denotes -, then the value of
18Q19P4R5S6, will be ---
a) 36
b) 53
c) 59
d) 65
Answer : B
 
Solution:-
Using correct symbols , we have :-
Given expression = 18x2÷4+5-6
= 18x3+5-6
= 54+5-6
= 53
So the answer is (b)

2. Substituting numbers for letters or vice-versa.
3. Writing the letters of the given word in reverse order in part or in whole.
4. Replacing the letters in their natural series by same positioned letters in their reverseseries.
5. Mirror images can also be used.
