Correct Answer: ÷, –, ×, +
Solution : Given: 96 * 3 * 7 * 4 * 11 = 15
Replace the * sign given in the equation with the assigned signs in the options one by one – First option: ×, +, ÷, – 96 × 3 + 7 ÷ 4 – 11 = 15 Solving the L.H.S. of the equation – = 96 × 3 + 1.75 – 11 = 288 + 1.75 – 11 = 278.75 ≠ 15 Second option: ×, ÷, –, + 96 × 3 ÷ 7 – 4 + 11 = 15 Solving the L.H.S. of the equation – = 96 × 0.428 – 4 + 11 = 41.088 – 4 + 11 = 48.088 ≠ 15 Third option: +, ÷, ×, – 96 + 3 ÷ 7 × 4 – 11 = 15 Solving the L.H.S. of the equation – = 96 + 0.428 × 4 – 11 = 96 + 1.712 – 11 = 86.712 ≠ 15 Fourth option: ÷, –, ×, + 96 ÷ 3 – 7 × 4 + 11 = 15 Solving the L.H.S. of the equation – = 32 – 7 × 4 + 11 = 32 – 28 + 11 = 4 + 11 = 15
So, only the fourth option satisfies the equation. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
