Correct Answer: + and –
Solution : Given: 12 + 4 ÷ 2 – 6 = 16
Replace the given symbols in the options one by one with the original symbols in the given equation. Let's check each option – First option: – and = 12 + 4 ÷ 2 = 6 – 16 12 + 2 = –10 14 ≠ –10 Second option: + and – 12 – 4 ÷ 2 + 6 = 16 12 – 2 + 6 = 16 16 = 16 (L.H.S. = R.H.S.) Third option: ÷ and = 12 + 4 = 2 – 6 ÷ 16 16 = 2 – 0.375 16 ≠ 1.625 Fourth option: ÷ and + 12 ÷ 4 + 2 – 6 = 16 3 + 2 – 6 = 16 –1 ≠ 16
So, only the second option satisfies the R.H.S. of the given equation. Hence, the second option is correct.
