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).
