What will come in the place of ‘?’ in the following equation, if ‘×’ and ‘−‘ are interchanged and ‘+’ and ‘÷’ are interchanged?

16 – 66 + 6 × 26 ÷ 36 = ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 186.

Given equation: 16 – 66 + 6 × 26 ÷ 36 = ?

If ‘×’ and ‘−‘ are interchanged and ‘+’ and ‘÷’ are interchanged, then

16 × 66 ÷ 6 – 26 + 36 = ?

= 16 × 11 – 26 + 36

= 176 – 26 + 36

= 212 – 26

= 186
