Select the correct combination of mathematical signs to replace the * signs and to balance the given equation.

221 * 17 * 3 * 60 * 7 * 10

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

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

Given equation: 221 * 17 * 3 * 60 * 7 * 10

Option 1: ÷, –, +, =, ×

After interchanging the expression becomes:

= 221 ÷ 17 - 3 + 60 = 7 × 10

= 13 - 3 + 60 = 7 × 10

= 13 + 57 = 70

= 70 is equal to 70.

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

Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
