    a) - and +
    New Expression: 119 + 21 ÷ 7 - 117 × 3 = 11 
    119 + 3 - 117 × 3 = 11 
    119 + 3 - 351 = 11 
    119 + 3 - 351 = 11 
    122 - 351 = 11 
    -229 = 11 (Incorrect)
    b) - and ×
    New Expression: 119 × 21 ÷ 7 + 117 - 3 = 11 
    119 × 3 + 117 - 3 = 11 
    357 + 117 - 3 = 11

    119 - 147 + 39 = 11 
    158 - 147 = 11 
    11 = 11 (Correct)
    Thus, correct option is (c).
