Question:

If ‘–’ means ‘÷’ , ‘+’ means ‘×’, ‘÷’ means ‘–’ , ‘×’ means ‘+’ , then which one of the following is true ?

Options:

43 × 7 ÷ 5 + 4 – 8 = 25

52 ÷ 4 + 5 × 8 – 2 = 36

36 × 4 – 12 + 5 ÷ 3 = 420

36 – 12 × 6 ÷ 3 + 4 = 60

Correct Answer:

52 ÷ 4 + 5 × 8 – 2 = 36

Explanation:

52 ÷ 4 + 5 × 8 – 2 = 36

on interchanging signs we get,

52 – 4 × 5 + 8 ÷ 2

⇒ 32 + 4

= 36
