Which two numbers should be interchanged to make the given equation correct?
$$5 - 4 \div 2 \times 10 + 7 = 7$$
Option (a)Â 10 and 2
$$5 - 4 \div 10 \times 2 + 7 = 7$$
$$5-0.4\times2+7=7$$
$$5-0.8+7=7$$
$$11.2\ne\ 7$$
The given equation is not satisfied. So this is not the correct answer.
Option (b)Â 5 and 7
$$7 - 4 \div 2 \times 10 + 5 = 7$$
$$7 - 2 \times 10 + 5 = 7$$
$$7 - 20 + 5 = 7$$
$$-8\ne\ 7$$
The given equation is not satisfied. So this is not the correct answer.
Option (c)Â 5 and 2
$$2 - 4 \div 5 \times 10 + 7 = 7$$
$$2 - 0.8 \times 10 + 7 = 7$$
$$2 - 8 + 7 = 7$$
$$1\ne\ 7$$
The given equation is not satisfied. So this is not the correct answer.
Option (d)Â 10 and 5
$$10 - 4 \div 2 \times 5 + 7 = 7$$
$$10 - 2 \times 5 + 7 = 7$$
$$10 - 10 + 7 = 7$$
7 = 7
The given equation is satisfied. So this is the correct answer.
