Which of the following interchange of signs and numbers would make the given equation correct?

25 - 10 ÷ 5 + 15 × 30 = 55

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. × and -, 15 and 10.

25 - 10 ÷ 5 + 15 × 30 = 55

After interchanging signs and numbers,

25 × (15 ÷ 5) + 10 - 30 = 55

(25 × 3) +10 - 30 = 55

(75 +10) - 30 = 55

85 - 30 = 55

55 = 55
