expected to do approximations)
𝑥% 𝑜𝑓 (6750 ÷ 15) – 12.12 × 16.16 = 116.99 – 23.99% 𝑜𝑓 649.891
IBPS PO PRE 2018

a) 16
b) 52
c) 54
d) 62
e) 34

Ans.(e)
By approximation, we get:
x% of 450 – 12× 16 = 117 – 24% of 650
⇒ x × 4.50 – 192 = 117 – 156
⇒ x × 4.50 = 192 – 39
⇒ x × 4.50 = 153
⇒ x = 153 ÷ 4.5
⇒ x = 34

Q2. What approximate value will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following question?
(You are not expected to calculate the exact value).
70.04 × 0.81 × 105.05 × 0.2 + 106.08 × 0.51 − 25 + 29.98 = ?
a) 1025
b) 1234
c) 1420
d) 916
e) 1310

Ans.(b)
By approximation, we get:
? = 70 × 0.8 × 105 × 0.2 + 106 × 0.5 − 25 + 30
= 56 × 21 + 53 − 25 + 30
= 1176 + 53 − 25 + 30
= 1234
Hence, option B is correct.

Q3. What approximate value should come in place of the question mark(?) in the following questions?
(Note: you are not expected to calculate the exact value)

Q33. What approximate value should come in the place of the question mark (?) in the following
question?
39.98% of 699.97 = 799.98 + 59.84% of 599.99 - ?
a) 880
b) 960
c) 640
d) 780
e) 720

Ans.(a)
Follow the BODMAS rule to solve this question, as per the order given below.
Step - 1: Parts of an equation enclosed in 'Brackets' must be solved first and following BODMAS
rule in the bracket-
Step - 2: Any mathematical 'Of' or 'Exponent' must be solved next.
Step - 3: Next, the parts of the equation that contain 'Division' and 'Multiplication' are calculated.
 Step - 4: Last but not least, the parts of the equation that contain 'Addition' and 'Subtraction'
should be calculated.
Since we need to find out the approximate value, we can write these values to their nearest
integers.
Given expression is
39.98% of 699.97 = 799.98 + 59.84% of 599.99 - ?
⇒ 40% of 700 = 800 + 60% of 600 - ?
⇒ 280 = 800 + 360 - ?
⇒ ? = 1160 - 280 = 880
