Correct option is A

Given: 36 – 3 ÷ 3 + 2 × 4 = 34
Condition: Two signs are to be interchanged
Logic: BODMAS
Operation preference wiseSymbolBrackets[],,()Orders,of(power),(root),ofDivision÷Multiplication×Addition+Subtraction\begin{array}{ | c | c | } \hline \textbf{Operation preference wise} & \textbf{Symbol} \\\hline Brackets &[], {}, () \\ \hline Orders, of & (power), √ (root), of \\ \hline Division & ÷ \\ \hline Multiplication & × \\ \hline Addition & + \\ \hline Subtraction & - \\ \hline \end{array}
Let's analyzed the options:
(a) – and ×
36 ×\times​ 3 ÷ 3 + 2 - 4 = 34
36 ×\times 1 + 2 - 4 = 34
36 + 2 - 4 = 34
38 - 4 = 34
34 = 34
Option (a) satisfied.
(b) ÷ and –
36 ÷\div​ 3 - 3 + 2 × 4 = 34
12 - 3 + 2 × 4 = 34
12 - 3 + 8 = 34
20 - 3 = 34
17 \ne 34
Not satisfied.
(c) – and +
36 + 3 ÷ 3 - 2 × 4 = 34
36 + 1 - 2 × 4 = 34
36 + 1 - 8 = 34
37 - 8 = 34
29 \ne 34
Not satisfied
(d) + and ÷
36 – 3 + 3 ÷ 2 × 4 = 34
36 - 3 + 32\frac{3}{2} × 4 = 34
36 - 3 + 6 = 34
42 - 3 = 34
39 \ne 34
Not satisfied
Thus, the correct option is (a)
