A.

× ÷ + -

B.

× ÷ +

C.

+ - × ÷

D.

÷ - + ×

Correct option is A

Concept: interchange mathematical operators and solve as per BODMAS rule.
Explanation:
Check option A, ​× ÷ + -​
Given:
14 * 15 * 5 * 7 * 2 = 47
After interchanging,
14 × 15 ÷ 5 + 7 - 2 = 47
Or, 14 × 3 + 5 = 47
Or, 42+5=47
Or, 47=47
So, its correct option.
Check option B, - × ÷+
Given:
14 * 15 * 5 * 7 * 2 = 47
After interchanging,
14 - 15 × 5 ÷ 7 + 2 = 47
Here 5 is perfectly not divisible by 7. so, it will result in decimal.
So, its not correct option.
Check option C, + - × ÷
Given:
14 * 15 * 5 * 7 * 2 = 47
After interchanging,
14 + 15 - 5 × 7 ÷ 2 = 47
Here 7 is perfectly not divisible by 2. So, it will result in decimal.
​So, its not correct option.
Check option D, ÷ - + ×
Given:
14 * 15 * 5 * 7 * 2 = 47
After interchanging,
14 ÷ 15 - 5 + 7 × 2 = 47
Here 14 is perfectly not divisible by 15. So, it will result in decimal.
So, its not correct option.
Thus, option A is correct.
