The correct answer is

1

Understanding the Mathematical Equation

The question asks us to find the value that replaces the question mark '?' in the given equation:

10\% of 450 - (8 × 5) = ? × 5

To solve this, we need to perform the calculations step-by-step, following the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).

Calculating Percentage

First, let's calculate 10\% of 450:

10\% of 450 = $\frac{10}{100} \times 450$

$= 0.1 \times 450$

$= 45$

Calculating the Product

Next, calculate the value inside the parentheses:

8 × 5 = $40$

Substituting Values into the Equation

Now, substitute these calculated values back into the original equation:

$45 - 40 = ? \times 5$

Simplifying the Equation

Perform the subtraction on the left side:

$5 = ? \times 5$

Solving for the Question Mark

To find the value of '?', we need to isolate it. Divide both sides of the equation by 5:

$\frac{5}{5} = \frac{? \times 5}{5}$

$1 = ?$

Conclusion

Therefore, the value that should come in place of the question mark '?' is 1.

This corresponds to option 3.
