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

71 + 32 × 2 - 63 ÷ 7 + [(81)1/4] × 3 - 22 = 113

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 3 and 7.

71 + 32 × 2 - 63 ÷ 7 + [(81)1/4] × 3 - 22 = 113

After interchanging numbers, 

71 + 64 - 63 ÷ 3 + [(81)1/4] × 7 - 22 = 113

135 - 21 + 21 - 22 = 113

113 = 113
