a = 3 / 2 b = a ** 3 c = 1 / 2 d = 1 + c e = d / 2 f = e ** 3 g = b - f h = g - 1 i = 1/(3) j = h ** i k = j * 2
a ) 10 , b ) 12 , c ) 14 , d ) 16 , e ) 17
c
divide(196, subtract(15, const_1))
find the number which when multiplied by 15 is increased by 196
"explanation : let the number be x . then , 15 x = x + 196 = β€Ί 14 x = 196 = β€Ί x = 14 . answer : option c"
a = 15 - 1 b = 196 / a
