Some of the equations are provided below with symbols and mathematical relations you have to check which of the following combination is correct.

By interchanging the given two signs, which of the following equations will be correct? × and +

  1. AOption (a)

    6 × 11 + 13 + 11 = 17

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (c)C.

11 × 6 ÷ 18 + 54 = 29

Why this answer is correct

BODMAS Rule:

Given condition:

Interchange the signs × and + and check which equation becomes correct.

Let's check each option one by one:

Option 1) 6 × 11 + 13 + 11 = 17

After interchanging × and +:

6 + 11 × 13 × 11 = 17

LHS = 6 + (11 × 13 × 11)

= 6 + 1573

= 1579

Since 1579 ≠ 17, this option is incorrect.

Option 2) 4 + 9 × 11 + 3 = 37

After interchanging × and +:

4 × 9 + 11 × 3 = 37

LHS = (4 × 9) + (11 × 3)

= 36 + 33

= 69

Since 69 ≠ 37, this option is incorrect.

Option 3) 11 × 6 ÷ 18 + 54 = 29

After interchanging × and +:

11 + 6 ÷ 18 × 54 = 29

LHS = 11 + (6 ÷ 18 × 54)

= 11 + (1 ÷ 3 × 54)

= 11 + 18

= 29

Since 29 = 29, this option is correct.

Option 4) 13 - 12 × 5 + 11 = 46

After interchanging × and +:

13 - 12 + 5 × 11 = 46

LHS = 13 - 12 + (5 × 11)

= 1 + 55

= 56

Since 56 ≠ 46, this option is incorrect.

Hence, the correct answer is “Option 3”.
