Question

Answer the question based on the information given below
Consider the following five step process
Step (1) Subtract 5
Step (2). Multiply 6
Step (3). If greater then 40 go to step (5), otherwise proceed to step(4)
Step (4) Add 14
Step (5) Divide by 3
If the starting value is 14 then what will be the final result?​

Answer 1

Answer:

-5 x 6 = 30

30 + 14 = 44 / 3

14 final answer is 18

Answer 2

Given:

Certain mathematical operations have been performed on a number 14,

Step (1) Subtract 5,

Step (2). Multiply 6,

Step (3). If greater than 40 go to step (5), otherwise proceed to step(4)

Step (4) Add 14,

Step (5) Divide by 3,

To Find:

The final result after all the operations are performed.

Solution:

The given problem can be solved using simple mathematical operations.

1. The given number is 14.

2. The operations performed in the given order are,

=> Step 1: Subtract 5

=> Result = 14 - 5 = 9,

=> Step 2 : Multiply 6,

=> Result = 9 x 6 = 54,

=> Step 3: If greater than 40, go to step 5, otherwise proceed to step 4,

=> As 54 is greater than 40, we can directly proceed to step 5.

=> Final result = Step 5: Divide by 3,

=> Final result = 54 / 3 = 18.

=> Final result = 18.

Therefore, the final result after performing the given operations is 18.
