Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. ÷, +, ÷, -, =.
Given conditions: 54 * 6 * 72 * 8 * 3 * 15
Option 1: ÷, +, ÷, -, =
After interchanging the expression becomes:
(54 ÷ 6) + (72 ÷ 8) - 3 = 15
⇒ 9 + 9 - 3 = 15
⇒ 18 - 3 = 15
⇒15 = 15
Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
