    Question

    By interchanging which two signs and two numbers (not digits) the equation will be correct?
    7 × 5 ÷ 6 + 2 – 4 = 16

    A.

    × and ÷, 2 and 4

    B.

    × and - , 5 and 6

    C.

    + and -, 6 and 2

    D.

    ÷ and +, 7 and 4

    Correct option is D

    Given: 7 × 5 ÷ 6 + 2 – 4 = 16
    (a) × and ÷, 2 and 4 after interchanging we get followng equation-
    7 ÷ 5 × 6 + 4 – 2 = 16
    Follow the BODMAS rule:
    1. Divide (÷) 1.4 × 6 + 4 – 2 = 16
    2. Multiply (×) 8.4 + 4 – 2 = 16
    3. Addition (+) 12.4 – 2 = 16
    4. Subtract (-) 10.4 ≠ 16.
    (b) × and - , 5 and 6 after interchanging we get followng equation-
    7 - 6 ÷ 5 + 2 × 4 = 16
    Follow the BODMAS rule:
    1. Divide (÷) 7 – 1.2 + 2 × 4 = 16
    2. Multiply (×) 7 – 1.2 + 8 = 16
    3. Addition (+) 15 – 1.2 = 16
    4. Subtract (-) 13.8 ≠ 16.
    (c) + and -, 6 and 2 after interchanging we get followng equation-
    7 × 5 ÷ 2 - 6 + 4 = 16
    Follow the BODMAS rule:
    1. Divide (÷) 7 × 2.5 - 6 + 4 = 16
    2. Multiply (×) 17.5 - 6 + 4 = 16
    3. Addition (+) 21.5 - 6 = 16
    4. Subtract (-) 15.5 ≠ 16.
    (d) ÷ and +, 7 and 4 after interchanging we get followng equation-
    4 × 5 + 6 ÷ 2 – 7 = 16
    Follow the BODMAS rule:
    1. Divide (÷) 4 × 5 + 3 – 7 = 16
    2. Multiply (×) 20 + 3 – 7 = 16
    3. Addition (+) 23 – 7 = 16
    4. Subtract (-) 16 =16.
    Correct answer is (d).
