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

63 ÷ 21 - 42 + 8 × 7 = 135 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 7 and 21.

63 ÷ 21 - 42 + 8 × 7 = 135

After interchangeing numbers, 

(63 ÷7) -  42 + ( 8 × 21) = 135

9 - 42 + 168 = 135

177 -  42 = 135

135 = 135
