Solution : Given: 19 + 36 × 12 ÷ 4 – 26 = 5
Interchange the signs in the given options. Let's check the options – First option: + and – = 19 – 36 × 12 ÷ 4 + 26 = 19 – 36 × 3 + 26 = 19 – 108 + 26 = 45 – 108 = –63 ≠ 5 Second option: ÷ and – = 19 + 36 × 12 – 4 ÷ 26 = 19 + 36 × 12 – 0.15 = 19 + 432 – 0.15 = 451 – 0.15 = 450.85 ≠ 5 Third option: × and ÷ = 19 + 36 ÷ 12 × 4 – 26 = 19 + 3 × 4 – 26 = 19 + 12 – 26 = 31 – 26 = 5 Fourth option: + and × = 19 × 36 + 12 ÷ 4 – 26 = 19 × 36 + 3 – 26 = 684 + 3 – 26 = 687 – 26 = 661 ≠ 5
So, only the third option satisfies the R.H.S. of the given equation. Hence, the third option is correct.
