None of them MUST be used. Any of them MIGHT be used
Perhaps it would help if you provide the "equality above" for us

D.
when there is a subtraction or addition on one side, you use 1.
when there is a division or multiplication, use 2.
when there are parentheses (with addition or subtraction within) multiplied bya single monomial, use 3.
