Correct Answer: Both I and II
Solution : Given: I. 7 – 4 × 3 ÷ 6 + 2 = 8 II. 6 – 8 × 2 + 9 ÷ 3 = 5
Let's check each equation after interchanging signs and numbers according to the instructions. On interchanging the signs and numbers in the first equation, we get – ⇒ 7 – 4 ÷ 3 × 2 + 6 = 8 Solving the L.H.S. of the equation – = 7 – 4 ÷ 3 × 2 + 6 = 7 – 1.33 × 2 + 6 = 7 – 2.67 + 6 = 10.33 ≠ 6 On interchanging the signs and numbers in the second equation, we get – ⇒ 2 – 8 ÷ 6 + 9 × 3 = 5 Solving the L.H.S. of the equation – = 2 – 8 ÷ 6 + 9 × 3 = 2 – 1.33 + 9 × 3 = 2 – 1.33 + 27 = 27.67 ≠ 5
So, both the equations are not correct after interchanging the signs and numbers. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
