    B.

    22 and 88, ÷ and ×

    C.

    11 and 2, + and ×

    D.

    Correct option is A

    Concept: interchange numbers and mathematical operators and solve as per BODMAS rule.
    Explanation:
    Check option A, ​11 and 2, ÷ and ×
    Given:
    17 + (22 ÷ 11) – (88 × 2) – 23 = 30
    After interchanging,
    17 + (22 × 2) – (88 ÷ 11) – 23 = 30
    Or, 17+44-8-23=30
    Or, 17+13=30
    Or, 30=30
    So, its correct option.
    Check option B, 22 and 88, ÷ and ×
    Given:
    17 + (22 ÷ 11) – (88 × 2) – 23 = 30
    After interchanging,
    17 + (88 × 11) – (22 ÷ 2) – 23 = 30
    or, 17+8-11-23=30
    or, -930
    So, its not correct option.
    Check option C,11 and 2, + and ×
    Given:
    17 + (22 ÷ 11) – (88 × 2) – 23 = 30
    After interchanging,
    17 × (22 ÷ 2) – (88 + 11) – 23 = 30
    or, 17×11 – 99 – 23 = 30
    or, 187-122=30
    or, 6530
    So, its not correct option.
    Check option D,22 and 88, + and ×
    Given:
    17 + (22 ÷ 11) – (88 × 2) – 23 = 30
    After interchanging,
    17 × (88 ÷ 11) – (22 + 2) – 23 = 30
    or, 17×8 –24 – 23 = 30
    or, 136-147=30
    or, -1130
    So, its not correct option.
    Thus, option A is correct.
