Correct Answer - Option 4 : 12

Based on condition given,

Symbol	Meaning
+	÷
-	+
×	-
÷	×

Substitute this in the given expression

[{(32 × 24) - (4 ÷ 3)} + (3 - 2)] ÷ 3

Therefore,

[{(32 - 24) + (4 × 3)} ÷ (3 + 2)] × 3

= [{8 + 12} ÷ (5)] × 3

= [{20} ÷ (5)] × 3

= 4 × 3 = 12

Hence, the correct answer is 12.
