    A.

    – and ×


    B.

    ÷ and –

    C.

    – and +

    D.

    + and ÷

    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)
