Question : Directions: Which two numbers should be interchanged to make the given equation correct? 36 × 12 + 48 ÷ 6 –18 = 202
Option 1: 6 and 18
Option 2: 6 and 12
Option 3: 36 and 18
Option 4: 36 and 48
Correct Answer: 6 and 12
Solution : Given: 36 × 12 + 48 ÷ 6 –18 = 202
Replace the given numbers in the options one by one with the original numbers in the given equation. First option: 6 and 18 = 36 × 12 + 48 ÷ 18 – 6 = 432 + 2.67 – 6 = 428.67 ≠ 202 Second option: 6 and 12 = 36 × 6 + 48 ÷ 12 – 18 = 216 + 4 – 18 = 202 Third option: 36 and 18 = 18 × 12 + 48 ÷ 6 – 36 = 216 + 8 – 36 = 188 ≠ 202 Fourth option: 36 and 48 = 48 × 12 + 36 ÷ 6 – 18 = 576 + 6 – 18 = 564 ≠ 202
Here, only the second option satisfies the R.H.S. of the given equation. Hence, the second option is correct.
