Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. × + ÷ -. 

Putting signs of option 2

Given: 11 * 13 * 238 * 17 * 34 = 123

11 × 13 + (238 ÷ 17) - 34 = 123

(11 × 13) + 14 - 34 = 123

(143 + 14) - 34 = 123

157 - 34 =123

123 = 123

Hence, the correct answer is × + ÷ -.
