Select the correct combination of mathematical signs that can sequentially replace the * signs and balance the equation.
60 * 2 * 3 * 6 * 5 * 43
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. ÷, +, ×, -, =.
Given equation: 60 * 2 * 3 * 6 * 5 * 43
Let us check all the options:
1) ÷, ×, +, -, =
The expression becomes:
=60 ÷ 2 × 3 + 6 - 5 = 43
= 91 is not equal to -43.
2) +, ÷, ×, =, -
The expression becomes:
= 60 + 2 ÷ 3 × 6 = 5 - 43
= 64 is not equal to -38.
3) ÷, +, ×, =, -
The expression becomes:
= 60 ÷ 2 + 3 × 6 = 5 - 43
= 48 is not equal to -38
4) ÷, +, ×, -, =
The expression becomes:
= 60 ÷ 2 + 3 × 6 - 5 = 43
= 43 is equal to 43
Hence, the correct answer is ÷, +, ×, -, =.
