Which two mathematical signs should be interchanged to make the given equation correct?

15 × 3 ÷ 15 – (45 × 3) – 10 + (13 ÷ 2) = 76

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. ÷ and ×.

Given Equation : 15 × 3 ÷ 15 – (45 × 3) – 10 + (13 ÷ 2) = 76

After putting the signs in Option 1 the equation is satisfied

15 ÷ 3 × 15 – (45 ÷ 3) – 10 + (13 × 2) = 76

5 × 15 - (15) - 10 + (26) = 76

75 - 15 - 10 + 26 = 76

101 - 25 = 76

76 = 76
