Question

Which two numbers and two signs should be interchanged in the following equation to make it correct?
14 + 16 – 14 × 9 ÷ 4 = 61

A.

16 and 14, + and ×

B.

16 and 9, + and -

C.

14 and 4, - and ÷

D.

14 and 9, + and ×

Correct option is B

14 + 16 – 14 × 9 ÷ 4 = 61
From option (b)
After changing the digit and signs following equation we get-
14 -9 + 14 × 16 ÷ 4 = 61
Using BODMAS rules
14 -9 + 14 × 4 = 61
14 -9 + 56 = 61
14 -9 + 56 = 61
70-9 = 61
61 = 61
Therefore, the correct option is (b).
