Which two numbers need to be interchanged to make the following equation correct?
24 + 22 × 12 ÷ 16 – 8 = 32
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1, i.e., 22 and 24.
After interchanging numbers,
22 + 24 × (12 ÷ 16) – 8 = 32
22 + (24 × 3/4) - 8 = 32
22 + 18 - 8 = 32
22 + 10 = 332
32 = 32
