First find the digital sum :
=> -(8+4)*(2+9)+(3+6+5)
=> - (12)*(11) +(14)
=> -(3)*2+5
=> -6+5
=> -1.
Now, if the answer comes in negative in any case then subtract the numeral value of the answer from 9.
In this case => 9-1 = 8.
so the overall digital sum is 8.
the answer will be -2071 because:
-(2+0+7+1).
=-(10).
=-1 => this answer also negative so subtract it from 9.
9-1 = 8.
This digital sum is the same as the digital sum derived from the problem.
=> -(8+4)*(2+9)+(3+6+5)
=> - (12)*(11) +(14)
=> -(3)*2+5
=> -6+5
=> -1.
Now, if the answer comes in negative in any case then subtract the numeral value of the answer from 9.
In this case => 9-1 = 8.
so the overall digital sum is 8.
the answer will be -2071 because:
-(2+0+7+1).
=-(10).
=-1 => this answer also negative so subtract it from 9.
9-1 = 8.
This digital sum is the same as the digital sum derived from the problem.

= -(84x30) = -2520.
= -2520+84 = -2436.
= -2436+365 = -2071.
= -2520+84 = -2436.
= -2436+365 = -2071.

Option C is wrong because;
-(84 * 29) = - 2436.
And,
-2436+365 can be written as =365- 2436.
Now,
365-2436= - 2071.
So option D is right.
-(84 * 29) = - 2436.
And,
-2436+365 can be written as =365- 2436.
Now,
365-2436= - 2071.
So option D is right.

Try using bodmas rule;
Which is in the order bracket order division multiplication addition subtraction
which follows---->. -(84*29)+365.
= -2436 + 365,
= -2071.
answer .D
Which is in the order bracket order division multiplication addition subtraction
which follows---->. -(84*29)+365.
= -2436 + 365,
= -2071.
answer .D
