Question

Select the correct combination of mathematical signs that can sequentially replace * to balance the following equation.
20*4*6*2*14*18

A.

÷,×,=,+,+

B.

+,=,÷, ×,+

C.

÷,×,-,=,×

D.

÷,×,+,=,+

Correct option is D

Given:
20*4*6*2*14*18   
Operation preference wiseSymbolBrackets[],,()Orders,of(power),(root),ofDivision÷Multiplication×Addition+Subtraction\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline \textbf{Operation preference wise} & \textbf{Symbol} \\\hline Brackets &[],{}, () \\ \hline Orders, of & (power), √ (root) , of \\ \hline Division& ÷ \\ \hline Multiplication & × \\ \hline Addition & + \\ \hline Subtraction & - \\\hline \end{array}
By option (a): putting the sign equation will be 
20 ÷ 4 × 6 = 2 + 14 + 18
× 6 = 16 + 18
303430 \not= 34 
By option (b): putting the sign in the equation will be 
20 + 4 =  6  ÷ 2  × 14 + 18
24 = 3 × 14 + 18
24 = 42 + 18
246024 \not= 60
By option (c):putting the sign equation will be 
20  ÷ 4 ×  6 - 2 = 14 × 18
× 6 - 2 = 252
30 - 2 = 252
2825228\not=252​  
By option (d):( ÷,×,+,=,+ )putting the sign equation will be 
20 ÷ 4 × 6 + 2 = 14 + 18
5×6+2=32 30+2=32 32=325\times6+2=32\\ \ \\30+2= 32\\ \ \\32=32​​
Thus, correction is (d).
