89 * 5 * 15 * 32 * 8 * 18

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

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

Given equation: 89 * 5 * 15 * 32 * 8 * 18

Option 1: -, ×, +, ÷, =

After interchanging the expression becomes:

= 89 - 5 × 15 + 32 ÷ 8 = 18

= 89 - 5 × 15 + 4

= 89 - 75 + 4

= 18 is equal to 18.

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

Hence, -, ×, +, ÷, = is the correct answer.
