Correct Answer: ×, ÷, –, +


Solution : Given:
4..6..2..4..8 = 16

Let's check each option –
First option: –, ×, +, ÷
4 – 6 × 2 + 4 ÷ 8
= 4 – 12 + 0.50
= –7.5 ≠ 16
Second option: ÷, +, ×, –
= 4 ÷ 6 + 2 × 4 – 8
= 0.67 + 8 – 8
= 0.67 ≠ 16
Third option: +, ÷, –, ×
= 4 + 6 ÷ 2 – 4 × 8
= 4 + 3 – 32
= –25 ≠ 16
Fourth option: ×, ÷, –, +
= 4 × 6 ÷ 2 – 4 + 8
= 4 × 3 + 4
= 16

So, only the fourth option satisfies the given equation. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
