    ×, ×, ÷, +

    Correct option is A

    Given: 12 * 5 * 9 * 54 * 9 = 1
    Logic: interchange * with mathematical operators and solve as per BODMAS rule.
    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}​​
    Check option A,​×, ×, ÷, −​
    Given:
    12 * 5 * 9 * 54 * 9 = 1
    After interchanging,
    12 × 5 × 9 ÷ 54 - 9 = 1
    10 - 9 = 1
    1=1
    So, its correct option.
    Check option B, ​+, ×, ÷, −​
    Given:
    12 * 5 * 9 * 54 * 9 = 1
    After interchanging,
    12 + 5 × 9 ÷ 54 - 9 = 1
    12 + 5 ÷ 6 - 9 = 1
    Here, 5 is perfectly not divisible by 6.
    So, its not correct option.
    Check option C, ​×, ×, −, −​​
    Given:
    12 * 5 * 9 * 54 * 9 = 1
    After interchanging,
    12 * 5 * 9 * 54 * 9 = 1
    So, its not correct option.
    Check option D,​×, ×, ÷, +​
    Given:
    12 * 5 * 9 * 54 * 9 = 1
    After interchanging,
    12 × 5 × 9 - 54 - 9 = 1
    540-63=1
    477≠1
    So, its not correct option.
    Thus, correct option is (a).
