Explanation

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

The correct combination of mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs and balance the given equation:

86 * 54 * 34 * 68 * 2 * 33

Option 1: -, +, ÷, ×, =

86 - 54 + 34 ÷ 68 × 2 = 33

86 - 54 + 0.5 × 2 = 33

86 - 54 + 1 = 33

87 - 54 = 33

33 = 33
