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

54 * 27 * 9 * 18 * 36 * 72

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

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

Given equation: 54 * 27 * 9 * 18 * 36 * 72

On replacing the * with signs:

54 + 27 ÷ 9 × 18 - 36 = 72

54 + 54 - 36 = 72

108 - 36 = 72

72 = 72
