Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 17, 20.

Given conditions: × and –, 4 and 5

I. 9 ÷ 3 × 6 + 5 – 4

After interchanging the expression becomes:

= 9 ÷ 3 - 6 + 4 × 5

= 3 - 6 + 4 × 5 = 17

II. 5 – 4 × 3 + 6 ÷ 2

After interchanging the expression becomes:

= 4 × 5 - 3 + 6 ÷ 2

= 4 × 5 - 3 + 3 = 20
