Question

In the following question, the equation has become incorrect due to wrong order of signs. Find out the correct order of sign (alternative ) from the four alternatives given below:

$15-3÷5\times 12=13$

• A. $\times -÷=$
• B. $÷\times -=$
• C. $-\times =÷$
• D. $÷-\times =$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $÷\times -=$

In this question, we need to find out the correct order of signs for the given equation. This can be done by eliminating the options given.

Option $A$.

$15\times 3-5/12\ne 13$. So let's eliminate the $OptionA$

Option $B$

$15/3\times 5-12$ $=13$

This order of sign is exactly the right. Hence, the answer is option $B$

We can try for Option $C$ and Option $D$, but for both the options we wont get $13$.
