36/4 - 2 * 3 = 9 - 6 = 3 (your gonna want to find the one that also has a solution of 3 to make them equal.) Do not forget to use the order of operations or PEMDAS -- parenthesis,exponents,(multiply/divide),(add/subtract)...in that order.

A) 3 * 6 - 4/2 = 18 - 2 = 16 (nope)
B) [ 18 - (10 - 6)] + 1 = [18 - 4] + 1 = 14 + 1 = 15 (nope)
C) [ (8 - 6) * 3] / 2 = [2 * 3] / 2 = 6/2 = 3 (BINGO)
D) 36 - 2 * 3 = 36 - 6 = 30 (nope)
