7. If ‘+’ means ‘÷’, ‘×’ means ‘+’, ‘-’ means ‘×’ and ‘÷’ means ‘-’ then which of the following will be the correct equation?

20 + 8 – 7 × 6 ÷ 4 = 25

20 × 5 + 12 ÷ 6 × 5 = 15

20 ÷ 5 + 6 × 12 – 4 = 67 1/6

50 – 4 + 8 × 18 ÷ 6 = 21

Solution:

9. If ‘+’ shows ‘÷’ ‘-’ shows ‘=’, ‘×’ shows ‘+’, ‘÷’ shows ‘>’, ‘=’ shows ‘<’, ‘>’ shows ‘x’ and ‘<’ shows ‘-’ then the correct expression is-

5 + 2 × 1 = 3 + 14 > 11

5 > 2 × 1 – 3 > 4 < 1

5 × 2 < 1 – 3 < 4 × 11

5 < 2 × 1 ÷ 3 > 4 × 11

Solution:

10. If ‘÷’ shows ‘>’, ‘×’ shows ‘+’, ‘+’ shows ‘÷’, ‘-’ shows ‘=’, ‘>’ shows ‘×’, ‘=’ shows ‘<’, ‘<’ shows ‘-’ then which of the following will be the correct?

3 + 2 < 4 ÷ 6 > 3 × 2

3 × 2 < 4 ÷ 6 + 3 < 2

3 > 2 < 4 – 6 × 3 × 2

3 × 2 × 4 = 6 + 3 < 2

Solution:
