Answer:

The correct answer is:

12 (c)

Step-by-step explanation:

The codes as shown C8 and D9 represent cells in an Excel spreadsheet. the cell tags describe the column letter and row numbers. For instance; C8 means the 8th row in Column C, while D9 means; the 9th row in column D. In order to do mathematical functions with Excel, the formulae starting with an equal sign (=) like the one shown in this example are used. The function is solved as follows:

= 2*C8+3*D9

where:

* = multiplication sign (×)

C8 = 3

D9 = 2

∴ 2*C8+3*D9 = (2 × 3) + (3 × 2)

= 6 + 6 = 12

∴ the result is 12
