What will come in the place of the question mark (?) in the following equation, if '+' and '-' are interchanged and '×' and '÷' are interchanged?

9 ÷ 6 - 136 × 8 + 13 = ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 58.

Given equation: 9 ÷ 6 - 136 × 8 + 13 = ?

After interchanging signs equation becomes;

= 9 × 6 + (136 ÷ 8) - 13 

= (9 × 6) + 17 - 13 

= (54 + 17) - 13 

= 71 - 13 

= 58
