    Question

    Which two numbers should be interchanged to make the given equation correct?
    24 - 34 × 6 ÷ 2 + 55 = 15

    A.

    6 and 15

    B.

    24 and 2

    C.

    15 and 34

    D.

    55 and 24

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    24 - 34 × 6 ÷ 2 + 55 = 15
    As per the options - 
    (a) After interchanging 6 and 15 we get following equation - 
    24 - 34 × 15 ÷ 2 + 55 = 6
    24 - 34 × 7.5 + 55 = 6
    24 - 255 + 55 = 6
    79 - 255 = 6
    176 \not= 6
    (b) After interchanging  24 and 2 we get following equation - 
    2 - 34 × 6 ÷ 24 + 55 = 15
    2 - 34 × 14\frac{1}{4}​ + 55 = 15
    2 - 8.5 + 55 = 15
    57 - 8.5 = 15
    48.5 \not= 15
    (c) After interchanging 15 and 34 we get following equation - 
    24 - 15 × 6 ÷ 2 + 55 = 34
    24 - 15 × 3 + 55 = 34
    24 - 45 + 55 = 34
    79 - 45 = 34
    34 = 34
    Correct answer is (c).
