Which two numbers (not individual digits) should be interchanged to make the given equation correct?

[(39 – 3) ÷ 6] + 11 × 2 – 4 × 5 = 13

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4, i.e., 3 and 6.

After interchanging the number,

[(39 – 3) ÷ 6] + 11 × 2 – 4 × 5 = 13

[(39 – 6) ÷ 3] + 11 × 2– 4 × 5 =13

[33÷3] + 11 ×  2 – 4 × 5 =13

11 + 22 – 20 = 13

33 – 20 = 13

13 = 13
