If '+' means '−', '−' means '×', '×' means '÷', and '÷' means '+', then \(20 + 5 \times 4 - 2 = ?\)
17.5
Step 1 – substitute the operators:
\(20 + 5 \to 20 - 5\)
\(5 \times 4 \to 5 \div 4\)
\(4 - 2 \to 4 \times 2\)
The expression becomes:
\(20 - 5 \div 4 \times 2\)
Step 2 – apply BODMAS (÷ and × first, left to right):
\(5 \div 4 = 1.25; \quad 1.25 \times 2 = 2.5\)
Step 3 – then subtraction:
\(20 - 2.5 = 17.5\)
Hence the answer is 17.5.

Select the set, from the given options, in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets.
(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits. E.g. 13 – Operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.)
