Select the correct combination of mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs and balance the given equation.
32 * 14 * 18 * 9 * 12 * 22
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. +, −, ÷, ×, =.
Given expression: 32 * 14 * 18 * 9 * 12 * 22
Option (2): +, −, ÷, ×, =
After replacing the * signs we get:
32 + 14 - (18 ÷ 9) × 12 = 22
⇒ 32 + 14 - (2 × 12) = 22
⇒ 32 + 14 - 24 = 22
⇒ 46 - 24 = 22
⇒ 22 = 22
