If $+$ means $÷$ , $÷$ means $-$ , $-$ means $×$ , and $×$ means $+$ , then find the value of the following expression: $5 - (13 - 4 + 2 ÷ 6 × 15 ÷ 5)$

120

150

✅ Correct Option: 4

Given rules:

'+' means '÷'

'-' means '×'

'×' means '+'

'÷' means '-'

Converting the expression:

$5 - (13 - 4 + 2 ÷ 6 × 15 ÷ 5)$ becomes

$5 \times (13 \times 4 \div 2 - 6 + 15 - 5)$

Now let's solve step by step following BODMAS:

Inside brackets first:

$4\div2=2$

$13 \times 2 = 26$

$26 - 6 = 20$

$20 + 15 = 35$

$35 - 5 = 30$

So now we have:

$5 \times 30 = 150$

Therefore, the value of the expression is 150.
