Question 21. 3 + 2 × 1=7
  1.    x, + and =
  2.    +, x and =
  3.    =, x and +
  4.    x, = and +
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> x, + and =
Answer: (a)
Let us check all the options one-by-one.
From option (a).
3+2 x 1 = 7
By interchanging the signs, from the options. We get,
⇒  3 x 2 + 1=7 (using VBODMAS rule)
⇒  6 + 1 =7 ⇒ 7 = 7
∴ LHS = RHS
As an option (a) gives us a correct answer, there is no need to check the remaining options.
Question 22. 65 40 11=36
  1.    - and +
  2.    x and ÷
  3.    ÷ and +
  4.    + and x
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> - and +
Answer: (a)
Let us check all the options one by one.
From option (a),
65 - 40 + 11 = 36
⇒  76 - 40 = 36
⇒ 36 = 36
⇒ LHS = RHS
So, option (a) is correct and hence there is no need to check remaining options.
Question 23. Place appropriate mathematical operations in the shaded boxes to get the answer. All calculations are to be performed from left to right.

8_4_6_5 = 60

  1.    -, ÷, +
  2.    x , ÷, x
  3.    x , ÷, -
  4.    ÷, x, x
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> ÷, x, x
Answer: (d)
8 ÷ 4 x 6 x 5
= $8/4$ x 6 x 5
= 2 x 6 x 5
= 60
Question 24. Which sequence of mathematical symbols can replace * in the given equation to balance the equation?

7 * 7 * 2 * 1= 12

  1.    x - ÷
  2.    + - x
  3.    x - +
  4.    + x -
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> + - x
Answer: (b)
Given, 7 * 7 * 2 * 1 = 12
Let us check all the options one by one.
From option (a),
putting the signs in given equation, we get
7 x 7 - 2 ÷ 1 = 12
⇒ 7 x 7 -2 = 12
⇒ 49 - 2 = 12
⇒  47 = 12
⇒ LHS ≠ RHS
So, option (a) is incorrect.
From option (b),
putting the signs in given equation, we get
7 + 7 - 2 x 1 = 12
⇒ 7 + 7 -2 = 12
⇒ 14 -2 = 12
⇒  12 = 12
Hence, option (b) is correct and there is no need to check remaining options.
Question 25. Select the correct combination of mathematical signs to replace* signs and to balance the given equation.

16 * 6 * 4 * 24

  1.    ÷ = x
  2.    x = ÷
  3.     = ÷ ÷
  4.    x ÷ =
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> x ÷ =
Answer: (d)
Since, 16 x 6 ÷ 4 = 24
⇒ $96/4$ = 24
⇒  24 = 24
Question 26. Select the correct combination of mathematical signs to replace* signs and to balance the given equation.

9* 3 * 3 * 3 * 6

  1.    ÷ x - =
  2.    + - x =
  3.    - + + =
  4.    x + - =
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> ÷ x - =
Answer: (a)
Since, 9 ÷ 3 x 3 - 3 = 6
⇒ 3 x 3 - 3 = 6
⇒ 9 - 3 = 6
⇒  6 = 6
Question 27. Given, B = 8, L = 7, O = 5, C =9 and K =4. Using the given total, find out the missing symbol in the block.

L ? K K K = 24

  1.    L
  2.    O
  3.    B
  4.    K
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> O
Answer: (b)
L ? K K K = 24
According to the question,
7 + ? + 4 + 4 + 4 = 24
⇒ ? = 24 - 19= 5=0
Hence, O is the missing symbol in the given.
Question 28. In the following question, * stands for any of the mathematical signs at different places, which are given as choices under each question. Select the choice with the correct sequence of signs which when substituted makes the question as a correct equation.

24 * 4 * 5 * 4

  1.    x + =
  2.    = x +
  3.    + x =
  4.    = + x
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> = x +
Answer: (b)
From option (b).
24 = 4 x 5 + 4
⇒ 24 = 20 + 4
⇒  24 = 24
Question 29. Select the correct combination of mathematical signs to replace * signs and to balance the given equation.

8 * 6 * 96 * 2 = 0

  1.    x ÷ -
  2.    x - ÷
  3.     - x ÷
  4.    ÷ - x
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> x - ÷
Answer: (b)
Since, 8 * 6 * 96 * 2 = 0
⇒  8 x 6 - 96 ÷ 2 = 0
⇒ 48 - 48 = 0
Question 30. If '-‘ denotes addition, ‘+' denotes subtraction, ‘×' denotes division and ÷ denotes multiplication, then 7 -10 × 5 ÷ 6 + 4 =?
  1.    3
  2.    12
  3.    15
  4.    9
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 15
Answer: (c)
According to the question,
? =  7 - 10 × 5 ÷ 6 + 4
from the question by changing the symbols, we get
= 7 + 10 ÷ 5 × 6 - 4 (using VBODMAS rule)
=7 + 2  × 6 - 4
= (7 + 12) - 4
= 15
