Correct Answer: 80


Solution : Given:
+ means –, – means ×, × means ÷, ÷ means +
61 ÷ 9 × 3 – 8 + 5 = ?

After interchanging the given mathematical signs, we get –
⇒ 61 + 9 ÷ 3 × 8 – 5
⇒ 61 + 3 × 8 – 5
⇒ 61 + 24 – 5
= 80

So, 80 is the answer to the given equation. Hence, the first option is correct.
