65 * 56 * 8 * 19 * 2 * 34

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

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

Given equation: 65 * 56 * 8 * 19 * 2 * 34

Let us check all the options:

Option 1: +, ÷, −, ×, =

The expression becomes:

= 65 + 56 ÷ 8 −19 × 2 = 34

= 65 + 7 −19 × 2

= 65 + 7 − 38

= 72 − 38

= 34 is equal to 34.

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

Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
