Question:

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

4 x 6 - 3 + 8 = 14

Options:

3 and 6

6 and 4

3 and 8

8 and 14 

Correct Answer:

3 and 6

Explanation:

In the equation, 4 x 6 - 3 + 8 = 14 if we interchange 3 and 6

It becomes 4 x 3 - 6 + 8 = 14

LHS = 4 x 3 - 6 + 8

using BODMAS rule,

= 12 - 6 + 8

= 14 = RHS 

Thus, the equation becomes correct.
