Correct Answer: 34


Solution : Given
‘+’ means ‘–’, ‘–’ means ‘×’, ‘×’ means ‘÷’, ‘÷’ means ‘+’
124 × 4 ÷ 13 – 3 + 36 = ?

After interchanging the mathematical operations the equation becomes –
124 ÷ 4 + 13 x  3 – 36 = ?
31 + 13 x  3 – 36
31 + 39 – 36 = 34

So, the equation equals to 34. Hence, the second option is correct.
