Select the correct combination of mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs and balance the given equation.
33 * 4 * 15 * 3 * 61 = 188
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. × - ÷ +.
Given equation: 33 * 4 * 15 * 3 * 61 = 188
Option 1: × - ÷ +
After interchanging the expression becomes:
= 33 × 4 - 15 ÷ 3 + 61 = 188
= 33 × 4 - 5 + 61
= 132 - 5 + 61
= 188 is equal to 188.
As we have found our answer, there is no need to check further options.
Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
