C
1987
D
2115
Answer
2007
Explanation
Solution
Let's simplify the equation step by step:
5389 + 4172 - 3868 - ? = 2456 + 1130
Now, add the numbers on the left side and on the right side separately:
(5389 + 4172 - 3868) - ? = 2456 + 1130
This becomes:
5693 - ? = 3586
Now, isolate the "?" by subtracting 3586 from both sides of the equation: ?
? = 3586 - 5693
= -2107 Now, to find the value of "?," multiply both sides by -1 to change the sign:
? = 2107
So, the answer is (1) 2007
The correct option is (A): 2007
