Which two signs should be interchanged to make the equation mathematically correct?
24 × 16 + 8 – 36 ÷ 18 = 30
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer option 2 i.e. + and ÷
Given equation: 24 × 16 + 8 – 36 ÷ 18 = 30
Option 2: + and ÷
After interchanging the expression becomes:
24 × 16 ÷ 8 – 36 + 18 = 30
24 × 2 – 36 + 18 = 30
48 – 36 + 18 = 30
12 + 18 = 30
30 = 30
