Let’s solve this step by step.

We have 5 equations with different Lego-style characters. Each character represents a number. We need to find the value of each character, then use those values to solve the last equation.

Let’s label the characters for clarity:

- Let A = the dark-skinned character with gold necklace (first in first equation)
- Let B = the red-helmeted character (second in first equation)
- Let C = the blue robot-like character (in second and fourth equations)
- Let D = the gray-haired character (in second and third equations)

Now write the equations:

1. A + 3 + B = 99
→ So, A + B = 96 → Equation (1)

2. 13 × C = D
→ So, D = 13C → Equation (2)

3. D - B = 132 ÷ 4
→ 132 ÷ 4 = 33
→ So, D - B = 33 → Equation (3)

4. 68 ÷ C = 17
→ So, C = 68 ÷ 17 = 4 → Equation (4)

Now plug C = 4 into Equation (2):

D = 13 × 4 = 52

Now plug D = 52 into Equation (3):

52 - B = 33
→ B = 52 - 33 = 19

Now plug B = 19 into Equation (1):

A + 19 = 96
→ A = 96 - 19 = 77

So now we have:

- A = 77
- B = 19
- C = 4
- D = 52

Now the final equation is:

A - B × C = ?

Plug in the numbers:

77 - 19 × 4

Remember order of operations: multiplication before subtraction.

19 × 4 = 76

Then:

77 - 76 = 1

✔ Final Answer: 1
