    Question

    Select the correct combination of mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs and to balance the given equation.
    98*49*7*74*55*3

    A.

    ÷,,+,×,=\div, -, +, \times, =​​

    B.

    ,÷,+,=,×-, \div, +, =, \times​​

    C.

    ,÷,+,×,=-, \div, +, \times, =​​

    D.

    ÷,,×,+,=\div, -, \times, +, =​​

    Correct option is B

    Given: 98*49*7*74*55*3
    Replace the * sign in the given equation with the mathematical signs and then solve the equation using the BODMAS rule.

    Option (a): ÷,,+,×,=\div, -, +, \times, =
    98 ÷\div 49 - 7 + 74 ×\times 55 = 3
    - 7 + 74 ×\times 55 = 3
    - 7 + 4070 = 3
    4072 - 7 = 3
    4065 \neq 3 (This option does not satisfy the equation)​​
    Option (b): ,÷,+,=,×-, \div, +, =, \times
    98 - 49 ÷\div 7 + 74 = 55 ×\times 3
    98 - 7 + 74 = 55 ×\times 3
    98 - 7 + 74 = 165
    172 - 7 = 165
    165 = 165 (This option satisfies the equation)
    Option (c): ,÷,+,×,=-, \div, +, \times, =
    98 - 49 ÷\div 7 + 74 ×\times 55 = 3
    98 - 7 + 74 ×\times 55 = 3
    98 - 7 + 4070 = 3
    4168 - 7 = 3
    4161 \neq 3 (This option does not satisfy the equation)​​​
    Option (d): ÷,,×,+,=\div, -, \times, +, =
    98 ÷\div 49 - 7 ×\times 74 + 55 = 3​
    - 7 ×\times 74 + 55 = 3
    - 518 + 55 = 3
    57 -​ 518 = 3
    -461 \neq 3 (This option does not satisfy the equation)​​
    Thus, only option (b) satisfies the equation.
