correct?

I. 10 × 216 + 17 ÷ 6 - 13 = 146

II. 7 × 216 + 41 - 17 ÷ 36 = 81

Only I

Only II

Neither I nor II

Both I and II

- For equation I (10 × 216 + 17 ÷ 6 - 13 = 146):

- Interchange + and -: 10 × 216 - 17 ÷ 6 + 13

- Interchange 17 and 216: 10 × 17 - 216 ÷ 6 + 13

- Evaluate: (10 × 17) - (216 ÷ 6) + 13 = 170 - 36 + 13 = 147, not 146.

- For equation II (7 × 216 + 41 - 17 ÷ 36 = 81):

- Interchange + and -: 7 × 216 - 41 + 17 ÷ 36

- Interchange 17 and 216: 7 × 17 - 41 + 216 ÷ 36

- Evaluate: (7 × 17) - 41 + (216 ÷ 36) = 119 - 41 + 6 = 84, not 81.

- Neither equation evaluates to the given result after interchanging.

Therefore, ?? Option 3: Neither I nor II is correct.
