If + means division, - means multiplication, '÷' means subtraction, x means addition, and < means less than, then which of the following is false
+ means division, - means multiplication, '÷' means subtraction, x means addition, and < means less than
(A) : $$(10+2)\div7 < (10\div7)+2$$
$$\equiv(10\div2)-7<(10-7)\div2$$
=> $$5-7<\frac{3}{2}$$
=> $$-2<1.5$$ [TRUE]
(B) : $$(10-7)\times2 < (10\times2)-7$$
$$\equiv(10\times7)+2<(10+2)\times7$$
=> $$70+2<12\times7$$
=> $$72<84$$ [TRUE]
(C) : $$(10\times7)-2 < (10-2)\times7$$
$$\equiv(10+7)\times2<(10\times2)+7$$
=> $$17\times2<20+7$$
=> $$34<27$$ [FALSE]
=> Ans - (C)
