Question : Directions: In the following question, you have to identify the correct response from the given premises stated according to the following symbols.
32 * 2 * 8 * 14 * 4
Option 1: ×, +, =, ÷
Option 2: +, +, =, ×
Option 3: ×, –, =, ×
Option 4: +, ×, =, ×
Correct Answer: ×, –, =, ×
Solution :
Given:
32 * 2 * 8 * 14 * 4
Replace * with the mathematical signs and solve the equations one by one.
Let's check the options –
First option:
×, +, =, ÷
⇒ 32 × 2 + 8 = 14 ÷ 4
L.H.S.→32 × 2 + 8 = 64 + 8 = 72
R.H.S.→14 ÷ 4 = 3.5
L.H.S. ≠ R.H.S.
Second option:
+, +, =, ×
⇒ 32 + 2 + 8 = 14 × 4
L.H.S.→32 + 2 + 8 = 42
R.H.S.→14 × 4 = 56
L.H.S. ≠ R.H.S.
Third option:
×, –, =, ×
⇒ 32 × 2 – 8 = 14 × 4
L.H.S.→32 × 2 – 8 = 64 – 8 = 56
R.H.S.→14 × 4 = 56
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Fourth option:
+, ×, =, ×
⇒ 32 + 2 × 8 = 14 × 4
L.H.S.→32 + 2 × 8 = 32 + 16 = 48
R.H.S.→14 × 4 = 56
L.H.S. ≠ R.H.S.
So, only the third option satisfies the given equation. Hence, the third option is correct.
