Which two signs should be interchanged to make the given equation correct?
$$15 - 18 + 14 \times 3 \div 3 = 19$$
Option (a)Â $$'\times'\ and\ '-'$$
$$15 \times 18 + 14 - 3 \div 3 = 19$$
$$270 + 14 - 1 = 19$$
$$283\ne19$$
The given equation is not satisfied. So this is not the correct answer.
Option (b)Â $$'+'\ and\ '-'$$
$$15 + 18 - 14 \times 3 \div 3 = 19$$
$$15 + 18 - 14 \times 1 = 19$$
$$33 - 14 = 19$$
19 = 19
The given equation is satisfied. So this is the correct answer.
Option (c)Â $$'\times'\ and\ '+'$$
$$15 - 18 \times 14 + 3 \div 3 = 19$$
$$15 - 18 \times 14 + 1 = 19$$
The given equation is not satisfied. Because it will give the negative values. So this is not the correct answer.
Option (d)Â $$'+'\ and\ '\div'$$
$$15 - 18 \div 14 \times 3 + 3 = 19$$
The given equation is not satisfied. Because it will give the fractional values. So this is not the correct answer.
