Which two numbers need to be interchanged to make the given equation correct?
$$16 \times 1792 \div 7 + 9 - 15 = 778$$
Option (a)Â 15, 9
$$16\times1792\div7+15-9=778$$
$$16\times256+6=778$$
4096+6=778
$$4102\ne778$$
The given equation is not satisfied. So this will not be the correct answer.
Option (b)Â 16, 7
$$7 \times 1792 \div 16Â + 9 - 15 = 778$$
$$7\times\frac{1792}{16}+9-15=778$$
$$7\times112+9-15=778$$
784-6=778
778=778
The given equation is satisfied. So this will be the correct answer.
Option (c)Â 16, 15
$$15 \times 1792 \div 7 + 9 - 16 = 778$$
$$15 \times 256 + 9 - 16 = 778$$
3840-7 = 778
$$3833\ne\ 778$$
The given equation is not satisfied. So this will not be the correct answer.
Option (d)Â 16, 9
$$9 \times 1792 \div 7 + 16 - 15 = 778$$
$$9 \times 256 + 16 - 15 = 778$$
2304+1 =Â 778
$$2305\ne\ 778$$
The given equation is not satisfied. So this will not be the correct answer.
