    B.

    × and ÷

    C.

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    28-28÷14+7×2=16

    Option (a) Interchange × and -

    Modified equation becomes:

    28×28÷14+7-2=16

    784÷14+5= 16

    56+ 5 = 16

    61\neq 16 (Not follow)

    Option (b) Interchange × and ÷​

    Modified equation becomes:

    ​28-28×14+7÷2=16

    28-392+7÷2=16

    28- 392 +3.5=16

    -364+3.5 = 16

    -360.5 \neq 16 (Not follow)

    Option (c) Interchange + and ÷​

    Modified equation becomes:

    28-28+14÷7×2=16

    28-28 + 2 ×2 =16

    28-28 +4 = 16

    0+4 = 16

    \neq 16 (Not follow)

    Option (c) Interchange+ and -​

    Modified equation becomes:

    28+28÷14-7×2=16

    28+2-7×2=16

    30-14 =16

    16= 16 (Follow)

    Thus, correct option is (d)
