Correct answer: B
Solution: Evaluate the expression using the given symbol mapping and correct order of operations.
Replace the symbols: 14 × 3 − 12 + 4 ÷ 2.
Compute multiplication and division first: 14 × 3 = 42 and 4 ÷ 2 = 2.
Now perform addition/subtraction left to right: 42 − 12 = 30, then 30 + 2 = 32.
Answer: 32
