Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 76.

Given : 15 ÷ 5 + 12 × 3 - 5 = ?

If '+' and '-' are interchanged and '×' and '÷' are interchanged, the equation will be :

= (15 × 5) - (12 ÷ 3) + 5 

= (15 × 5) - 4 + 5

= 75 - 4 + 5

= 80 - 4

= 76
