    ? = 5454 ÷ 54 ÷ 5
    = 5454/(54 x 5)

    Correct Option: D

    ? = 5454 ÷ 54 ÷ 5
    = 5454/(54 x 5) = 5454/270 = 20.2 ≈ 20

    3 7.5 ÷ 271.5 x 92 = 3?
    ⇒ 37.5 ÷ (3)3 x 15 x 32 x 2 = 3 ?

    Correct Option: C

    3 7.5 ÷ 271.5 x 92 = 3?
    ⇒ 37.5 ÷ (3)3 x 15 x 32 x 2 = 3 ?
    ⇒ 37.5 - 4.5 + 4 = 3? ⇒ 37 = 3? ⇒ ? = 7

    ? = 953.7 ÷ 950.9989 = 95?
    ⇒ 95(3.7 - 0.9989) = 95?
    ⇒ 952.7011 = 95?

    Correct Option: D

    ? = 953.7 ÷ 950.9989 = 95?
    ⇒ 95(3.7 - 0.9989) = 95?
    ⇒ 952.7011 = 95?
    ∴ ? = 2.7011 ≈ 2.7


  1. [137 ÷ 17 x 3.99]/[4.02 x 3.98] = ?

    [137 ÷ 17 x 3.99]/[4.02 x 3.98] = ? ≈ (137 ÷ 17 x 4) / (4 x 4)

    Correct Option: D

    [137 ÷ 17 x 3.99]/[4.02 x 3.98] = ? ≈ (137 ÷ 17 x 4) / (4 x 4) ≈ 2

    99.999 ÷ 0.99 ÷ 0.00991234 = 100 ÷ 1 ÷ 0.01

    Correct Option: B

    99.999 ÷ 0.99 ÷ 0.00991234
    = 100 ÷ 1 ÷ 0.01 = 10000
