Correct Answer: 39


Solution : Given:
+ means –, – means ×, × means ÷, and ÷ means +
13 – 3 + 15 × 3 ÷ 5 = ?

After interchanging the given mathematical signs, we get –
13 × 3 – 15 ÷ 3 + 5
13 × 3 – 5 + 5
39 – 5 + 5
= 39

So, 39 is the answer to the given equation. Hence, the third option is correct.
