Which two numbers need to be interchanged to make the given equation correct?
17 - 42 + 34 ÷ 2 × 27 = 274
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2, i.e., 17 and 27.
17 - 42 + 34 ÷ 2 × 27 = 274
Option 2: 17 and 27
27 - 42 + (34 ÷ 2) × 17 = 274
27 - 42 + (17 × 17) = 274
(27 + 289) - 42 = 274
316 - 42 = 274
274 = 274
