What will come in place of the question mark (?) when + and − are interchanged and 8 and 16 are also interchanged?

3 × 6 + 16 − 8 ÷ 2 = ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 18.

3 × 6 + 16 − 8 ÷ 2 = ?

After interchanging the mathematical sign and number we get;

= 3 × 6 - 8 + 16 ÷ 2

= 3 × 6 - 8 + 8

= 18 - 8 +  8

= 18

Hence, the correct answer is 18.
