Which two signs should be interchanged to make the given equation correct? 5 × 5 + 5 – 5 ÷ 5 = 5
× and –
Interchange the signs and evaluate using the order of operations (division and multiplication before addition and subtraction).
Interchanging × and -:
5 - 5 + 5 × 5 ÷ 5
= 5 - 5 + 25 ÷ 5
= 5 - 5 + 5
= 5 = RHS
Check another case, + and -: 5 × 5 - 5 + 5 ÷ 5 = 25 - 5 + 1 = 21, which is not 5.
Hence, × and –.
