Answers with Explanations:
1. 5; ? = 1504 × 5.865 – 24.091 = 8820.96 – 24.091 = 8796.869 » 8800
2. 3; ? = 16.928 + 24.7582 ÷ 5.015 = 17 + 25 ÷ 5 = 17 + 5 = 22
3. 1; ³√7.938 × (6.120)² – 4.9256 = 2 × 37.45 – 4.9 = 74.9 – 4.9 = 70
4. 1; ? = 16/2.80 × 0.60 = 96/28 = 3.428 ≈ 3.5
5. 4; ? = √963 + (4.895)² – 9.24 = 31 + 23.04 – 9.24 = 44.04 – 9 = 45.04 ≈ 45
6. 4; ? ≈ 145 × 1340/100 + 42 × 18.5 = 1943 + 777 = 2720
7. 2; ? ≈ 3740/21 × 4.5 = 178 × 4.5 = 801 ≈ 800
8. 3; ? ≈ (2260/39 × √2020) × 1.25 ≈ (57.948 × 44.94) × 1.25 = (58 × 45) × 1.25 = 3262.5 ≈ 3260
9. 1; ? ≈ 185 × 750/100 – 115 × 840/100 = 1387.5 – 966 = 421.5 ≈ 420
10. 3; ? ≈ 156 – 12 × 3 = 156 – 36 = 120
