If + means ×, − means ÷, × means − and ÷ means +, then find the value of: 16 ×…

Step 1: Replace each operator according to the rules.

• Plus (+) means multiply (×).

• Minus (−) means divide (÷).

• Times (×) means subtract (−).

• Divide (÷) means add (+).

Apply these to the expression 16 × 4 + 12 − 4 ÷ 18.

After replacement the expression becomes: 16 − 4 × 12 ÷ 4 + 18.

1. Compute multiplication and division from left to right:

2. 4 × 12 = 48

3. 48 ÷ 4 = 12

4. Now the expression is 16 − 12 + 18.

5. Evaluate left to right: 16 − 12 = 4, then 4 + 18 = 22.

Final answer: 22
