    Question

    By interchanging the given two signs and numbers which of the following equation will be not correct?
    – and ÷, 8 and 2
    I. 5 + 7 – 8 × 4 ÷ 2 = 9
    II. 3 + 8 × 4 – 2 ÷ 1 = 3

    A.

    Neither I nor II

    B.

    Only II

    C.

    Both I and II

    D.

    Only I

    Correct option is D

    Given: Interchange:
    ‘–’ and ‘÷’
    ‘8’ and ‘2’
    Operation preference wiseSymbolBrackets[],,()Orders, of(power),(root),ofDivision÷Multiplication×Addition+Subtraction\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline\textbf{Operation preference wise} & \textbf{Symbol} \\\hline\text{Brackets} &[], {}, () \\ \hline \text{Orders, of} & (power), √ (root) , of \\ \hline \text{Division}& ÷ \\ \hline \text{Multiplication} & × \\\hline \text{Addition} &+ \\ \hline \text{Subtraction} & - \\\hline\end{array}​​
    I. 5 + 7 – 8 × 4 ÷ 2 = 9
    After interchanged equation will be:
    5 + 7 ÷ 2 × 4 – 8 = 9
    5 + 3.5 × 4 – 8 = 9
    5 + 14 - 8 = 9
    19 - 8 = 9
    11 \not= 9​
    ​II. 3 + 8 × 4 – 2 ÷ 1 = 3​
    After interchanged equation will be:
    3 + 2 × 4 ÷ 8 – 1 = 3
    3 + 1 - 1
    ? = 3 = 3
    So, only I is not correct.
    Thus, the correct option is: (d)
