Question
In a row of girls Shilpa is 8th from the left and Reena is 7th from the right. If they interchange their positions, Shilpa becomes 14th from the left, how many girls are there in the row?
34 35 30 37
Solution
To solve this problem, we need to consider the positions of Shilpa and Reena before and after they switch places.
-
Initially, Shilpa is 8th from the left. After they switch places, she becomes 14th from the left. This means that Reena's original position was 14th from the left.
-
We also know that Reena was originally 7th from the right.
-
To find the total number of girls in the row, we add Reena's position from the left (14) to her position from the right (7) and subtract 1 (because we are counting Reena twice).
So, the total number of girls in the row is 14 + 7 - 1 = 20.
Therefore, the correct answer is not in the options provided. There seems to be a mistake in the question or the options.
