Question:

By interchanging the given two signs and numbers which of the following equation will be correct ?

× and ÷, 2 and 6 

I. 7 - 4 ×3 ÷6 + 2 = 8

II. 6 - 8 ×2 +9 ÷ 3 = 5 

Options:

Only II

Neither I nor II

Only I 

Both I and II 

Correct Answer:

Neither I nor II

Explanation:

I. 7 - 4 ×3 ÷ 6 + 2 = 8

After interchanging the given two signs × and ÷, 2 and 6 

7 - 4 ÷ 3 × 2 + 6 = 8

7 - 1.3 × 2 + 6

7 - 8.6

1.6 ≠ 8

II. 6 - 8 × 2 +9 ÷ 3 = 5

After interchanging the given two signs × and ÷, 2 and 6

2 - 8 ÷ 6 + 9 × 3

2 - 1.3 + 27

29 - 1.3

27.7 ≠  5
