This question was previously asked in
RRB Group D 2024 Question Paper PDF (21-Dec-2025) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is

81

Apply the BODMAS order, evaluating 'of' first, then division and multiplication, then addition and subtraction.

'12 of 4' means \(12 \times 4 = 48\).

\(189 ÷ 9 = 21\); \(117 ÷ 13 × 5 = 9 × 5 = 45\); \(9 × 7 = 63\).

The expression becomes \(21 + 45 − 48 + 63\).

\(21 + 45 = 66\); \(66 − 48 = 18\); \(18 + 63 = 81\).

Hence, the value of the expression is 81.
