Correct option is C
Concept: interchange mathematical operators and solve as per the BODMAS rule.
Given:
289 + 17 × 12 ÷ 216 − 300 = 120
option a − and +
289 - 17 × 12 ÷ 216 + 300 = 120
289 - 0.006 + 300 = 120
does not give 120 as output
option b ÷ and −
289 + 17 × 12 - 216 ÷ 300 = 120
289 + 204 - 0.72 = 120
does not give 120 as output
option c , ÷ and +
289 ÷ 17 × 12 + 216 − 300 = 120
Or, 204 + 216 - 300 =120
Or, 420 - 300 =120
Or, 120 = 120
So, it's the correct option.
option d + and ×
289× 17 + 12 ÷ 216 − 300 = 120
4913 + 0.055 - 300 = 120
does not give 120 as output.
hence only option c gives correct answer,
