  4. D
    30

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

To solve the equation, replace the letter codes with their respective mathematical operators:
A→÷

B→−

C→×

D→+

Substituting these into the given expression:

36−8÷56×49+53
Now, apply the BODMAS rule (Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction):
