Question

What will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following equation, if ‘+’ and ‘–’ are interchanged and ‘×’ and ‘÷’ are interchanged?
321 – 371 ÷ 22 + 216 × 6 = ?

A.

7848

B.

7884

C.

8747

D.

8447

Correct option is D

Given:
321371÷22 + 216 ×6= ?321 - 371 \div 22 \ + \ 216 \ \times 6 = \ ? ​​
'++' and '-' are interchanged, and '×\times' and '÷\div' are interchanged.​
Concept: To solve this, interchange the signs as directed in the statement in the given equation to solve the equation. For this, we follow the BODMAS rule.
Operation preference wiseSymbolBrackets[ ],( )Orders, ofpower,root,ofDivision÷Multiplication×Addition+Subtraction\begin{array}{|c|c|}\hline\textbf{Operation preference wise} & \textbf{Symbol} \\\hline\text{Brackets} & [ \ ], ( \ ) \\\text{Orders, of} & power, root, of \\\text{Division} & \div \\\text{Multiplication} & \times\\\text{Addition} & +\\\text{Subtraction} & -\\\hline\end{array}​​
After interchanging the symbols, we get, 321371 ÷ 22 +216×6 = ?321 - 371 \ \div \ 22 \ + 216 \times 6 \ = \ ?
321+371×2236= ?321 + 371 \times 22 - 36 = \ ?
321+816236= ?321 + 8162 - 36 = \ ?
848336= ?8483 - 36 = \ ?
(?)=8447(?) = 8447​​​​​​​​
The final answer is 8447.
Thus, option (d) is the correct answer.
