Question

What will be the output of the following statement:
print(16 * 5 / 4 * 2 / 5 - 8)

• A. -3.33
• B. 6.0
• C. 0.0
• D. -13.33

Hint:

Always follow operator precedence: parentheses first, then exponentiation, followed by multiplication/division, and finally addition/subtraction (PEMDAS).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The expression is evaluated sequentially based on operator precedence, with division and multiplication performed left-to-right, followed by subtraction:

\[ 16 \times 5 = 80, \quad 80 \div 4 = 20, \quad 20 \times 2 = 40, \quad 40 \div 5 = 8, \quad 8 - 8 = 0.0. \] 

Consequently, the statement yields \( 0.0 \).
