Which two signs should be interchanged to make the given equation correct?
756 ÷ 252 + 89 × 180- 63 = 384

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1, i.e. + and × 

Option 1) : + and × 

Given equation is  : 756 ÷ 252 + 89 × 180 - 63 = 384

After interchanging the two signs :

⇒ 756 ÷ 252 × 89 + 180 - 63 = 384

After using the BODMAS rule, 

⇒ (756 ÷ 252) × 89 + 180 - 63 = 384

⇒ (3 × 89) + 180 - 63 = 384

⇒ 267 + 180 - 63 = 384

⇒ 447 - 63 = 384

⇒ 384 = 384

LHS = RHS

Hence, the correct answer is + and ×.
