Given equation: 24 – 16 + 8 × 6 + 2 ÷ 3 = ?

Given symbol interchanges:

- means +
+ means ÷
× means -
÷ means ×

Apply the interchanges to the given equation:

24 + 16 ÷ 8 - 6 ÷ 2 × 3 = ?

Now, solve the equation:

= 24 + 16 ÷ 8 - 6 ÷ 2 × 3 

= 24 + 2 - 6 ÷ 2 × 3 

= 24 + 2 - 3 × 3 

= 24 + 2 - 9 

= 17 

Hence, the correct answer is "Option "Option 1".
