Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

To solve this question, we must substitute the operators as given in the problem statement:
Interchange + and −

Interchange × and ÷

Given original equation:

9÷145×29−75+13=?
After interchanging the operators, the new equation becomes:

9×145÷29+75−13=?
Now, apply the BODMAS rule (Brackets, Orders, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction):

Division:

145÷29=5
The equation simplifies to:

9×5+75−13=?
Multiplication:

9×5=45
The equation simplifies to:

45+75−13=?
Addition:

45+75=120
The equation simplifies to:

120−13=?
Subtraction:

120−13=107
Thus, the correct value in place of '?' is 107.
