Direction: What should be the correct signs to balance the following equations ?

  1. 6   5   4 = 34
    1. - and +
    2. x and +
    3. ÷ and x
    4. x and -
Correct Option: B

Let us check all the options one by one.
From option (a),
6 - 5 + 4 = 34 (using VBODMAS rule)
⇒ 10 - 5 = 34 ⇒ 5 = 34
∴ LHS ≠ RHS
So, option (a) is incorrect
From option (b),
6 x 5 + 4 = 34 (using VBODMAS rule)
⇒ 30 + 4 = 34 ⇒ 34 = 34
⇒ LHS = RHS
So, option (b) gives us the correct answer and hence, there is no need to check remaining options.
