If * stand for addition

⊗\otimes stand for subtraction

⇔\Leftrightarrow stand for division

↕\updownarrow stand for multiplication

≠\neq stand for equal to

Then which of the following alternatives is correct?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Decoded Operator Key:

  • ∗\ast →\rightarrow Addition (++)
  • ⊗\otimes →\rightarrow Subtraction (−-)
  • ⇔\Leftrightarrow →\rightarrow Division (÷\div)
  • ↕\updownarrow →\rightarrow Multiplication (×\times)
  • ≠\neq →\rightarrow Equal to (==)

Step-by-Step Solution:

Let's substitute the operators into the expression for Option 1: 2↕5⊗6∗2≠6

2×5−6+2=62 \times 5 - 6 + 2 = 6

Now, solve the Left-Hand Side (LHS) using the strict BODMAS order of operations (Multiplication →\rightarrow Addition →\rightarrow Subtraction):

  1. Multiplication First: Multiply 22 by 55:

2×5=102 \times 5 = 10

The expression becomes: 10−6+2\text{The expression becomes: } 10 - 6 + 2

  1. Addition Next: Group and add the positive values (1010 and 22):

10+2=1210 + 2 = 12

The expression becomes: 12−6\text{The expression becomes: } 12 - 6

  1. Subtraction Last: Subtract 66 from 1212:

12−6=612 - 6 = 6

Since the calculated result (6) matches the Right-Hand Side completely (6=66 = 6), Option 1 is verified as the correct balanced equation.
