Answer 1

`A. \\ 16-(4+7)=12+7=19 - \hbox{wrong, parentheses first:} \\ 16-(4+7)=16-11=5 \\ \\ B. \\ 10+(6 / 3)=10+2=12 - \hbox{correct} \\ \\ C. \\ 7 * 6+4=7 * 10=70 - \hbox{wrong, multiplication first:} \\ 7 * 6+4=42+4=46 \\ \\ D. \\ 2+5 * 7=2+35=37 - \hbox{correct}`

Statements B and D are true.
