Select the correct combination of mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs and to balance the given equation.
(440 * 11) * 85 * 57 * (34 * 3)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. ÷, −, =, −, ×.
Given equation: (440 * 11) * 85 * 57 * (34 * 3)
Option 1: ÷, −, =, −, ×
After interchanging the expression becomes:
= (440 ÷ 11) − 85 = 57 − (34 × 3)
= 40 − 85 = 57 − 102
= -45 = -45
= -45 is equal to -45.
As we have found our answer, there is no need to check further options.
Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
