qImage11156

Given Equations :

  •  6 - 5 × 9 + 8 ÷ 2
  •  6 - 4 + 9 × 5 ÷ 3

​Now,

I. 6 - 5 × 9 + 8 ÷ 2

After interchanging + and -, 6 and 9 respectively

 9 + 5 × 6 - 8 ÷ 2

⇒ 9 + 5 × 6 - 4

⇒ 9 + 30 - 4

39 - 435.

II. 6 - 4 + 9 × 5 ÷ 3

After interchanging + and -, 6 and 9 respectively

⇒ 9 + 4 - 6 × 5 ÷ 3

⇒ 9 + 4 - 10

13 - 10 = 3

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".
