SSC GD Const (English) - 29 Feb 2024 - Shift 4 • Reasoning • Q62

By Interchanging the given two numbers which of the following equation will be not correct?

4 and 7

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 4 ÷ 2 + 3 + 7 = 6.

Option 1: 4 × 2 + 7 - 3 = 15

After interchanging numbers,

⇒ (7 × 2) + 4 - 3 = 15

⇒ 14 + 4 - 3 = 15

⇒ 18 - 3 = 15

⇒ 15 = 15 

Option 2: 4 ÷ 2 + 3 + 7 = 6

After interchanging numbers,

⇒ (7 ÷ 2) + 3 + 4 = 6

⇒ 3.5 + 3 + 4 = 6

⇒ 10.5 = 6 (not equal)

Since, we got answer so no need to check further options.

Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
