    Select the correct combination of mathematical operations to replace signs and to balance the given equation. \[\mathbf{10*3*4*2*1*31}\]

    A)  \[+,\times ,-,\div ,=\]                

    B)  \[\times ,+,\div ,-,=\]

    C)  \[\div ,+,\times ,-,=\]                

    D)  \[\times ,-,\div ,+,=\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Solving from the choices: [A] After inserting the operators \[(+,\,\times ,-,\div ,=)\] We get, \[10+3\times 4-2\div 1=31\] [Use 'BODMAS' rule] \[10+12-2=31\Rightarrow 20\ne 31\] [B] After inserting the operators \[(\times ,+,\div ,-,=)\]. We get, \[\underline{\mathbf{10\times 3+4\div 2-1=31}}\] [Use 'BODMAS' rule] \[30+2-1=31\Rightarrow 31=31\] [C] After inserting the operators \[(\div ,\,+,\,\times ,\,-,\,=)\]. We get, \[10\div 3+4\times 2-1=31\] [Use BODMAS 'Rule] \[3.33+8-1=31\Rightarrow \,10.33\ne 31\] [D] After inserting the operators \[(\times ,\,-,\,\div ,+,=).\]. We get, \[=10\times 3-4\div 2+1=31\] [Use BODMAS 'Rule] \[30-2+1=31\Rightarrow 29\ne 31\]
