Solution : Given: 10 + 54 ÷ 9 – 4 × 60 = 116
Replace the given symbols in the options one by one with the original symbols in the given equation. First option: – and × 10 + 54 ÷ 9 – 4 × 60 = 116 ⇒ 10 + 54 ÷ 9 × 4 – 60 ⇒ 10 + 6 × 4 – 60 ⇒ –26 ≠ 116 Second option: ÷ and × 10 + 54 ÷ 9 – 4 × 60 = 116 ⇒ 10 + 54 × 9 – 4 ÷ 60 ⇒ 10 + 54 × 9 – 0.06 ⇒ 10 + 486 – 0.06 ⇒ 495.94 ≠ 116 Third option: + and × 10 + 54 ÷ 9 – 4 × 60 = 116 ⇒ 10 × 54 ÷ 9 – 4 + 60 ⇒ 10 × 6 – 4 + 60 ⇒ 116 = 116 Fourth option: + and – 10 + 54 ÷ 9 – 4 × 60 = 116 ⇒ 10 – 54 ÷ 9 + 4 × 60 ⇒ 10 – 6 + 240 ⇒ 244 ≠ 116
Here, only the third option satisfies the R.H.S. of the given equation. Hence, the third option is correct.
