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

790 + 5 ÷ 58 × 5 – 96 = 352

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. + and ÷.

Given equation: 790 + 5 ÷ 58 × 5 – 96 = 352

Option 1: + and ÷

After interchanging the expression becomes:

= 790 ÷ 5 + 58 × 5 – 96 = 352

= 158 + 58 × 5 – 96

= 158 + 290 – 96

= 448 – 96

= 352 = 352

As we have found our answer, there is no need to check further options.

Hence, + and ÷ is the correct answer.
