SSC CHSL - 16 April 2021 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q99

Select the correct combination of mathematical signs that can sequentially replace the * signs and balance the given equation.

110 * 728 * 28 * 15 * 413 = 87

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1. i.e. +, ÷, ×, −.

Given equation: 110 * 728 * 28 * 15 * 413 = 87

Option 1: +, ÷, ×, −

After interchanging the expression becomes:

= 110 + 728 ÷ 28 × 15 − 413 = 87

= 110 + 26 × 15 − 413

= 110 + 390 − 413

= 87 is equal to 87.

As we have found our answer, there is no need to check further options.

Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
