35 and 5

- Let's start by assessing the given equation: 35 + 3 ÷ 3 - 5 + 1 = 40.

- We need to interchange numbers to make this equation hold true.

- Option 1: 40 and 35 - This would make the left side 40 + 3 ÷ 3 - 5 + 1, which does not equal 40.

- Option 2: 1 and 5 - Interchanging these makes it 35 + 3 ÷ 3 - 1 + 5, simplifying to 40 = 40.

- Option 3: 1 and 35 - This alteration brings us to 1 + 3 ÷ 3 - 5 + 35, not resolving to 40.

- Option 4: 35 and 5 - Bringing these together forms 5 + 3 ÷ 3 - 35 + 1, which definitely doesn’t yield 40.
