483 * 23 * 93 * 16 * 4 * 50

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

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

Given equation: 483 * 23 * 93 * 16 * 4 * 50

Let us check all the options:

Option 1: ÷, +, -, =, ×

The expression becomes:

= 483 ÷ 23 + 93 - 16 = 4 × 50

= 98 is not equal to 200.

Option 2: ÷, +, -, ×, =

= 483 ÷ 23 + 93 - 16 × 4 = 50

= 50 is equal to 50.

As we have found our answer, we need not check the other options.

Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
