Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. ÷ and +.
Given equation: 114 ÷ 85 + 5 × 4 – 33 = 149
Option 1: ÷ and +
After interchanging the expression becomes:
114 + 85 ÷ 5 × 4 – 33 = 149
114 + 17 × 4 – 33 = 149
114 + 68 – 33= 149
182 - 33 = 149
149 = 149
