Question
In a row of bikes, yamaha is 9th from the left and bajaj is 14th from the right. if they interchange their positions, yamaha becomes 17th from the left. How many number of bikes between yamaha and bajaj?
Solution
To solve this problem, we need to follow these steps:
-
Initially, Yamaha is 9th from the left. After Yamaha and Bajaj interchange their positions, Yamaha becomes 17th from the left. This means that Bajaj was originally 17th from the left.
-
Bajaj is also 14th from the right.
-
To find the total number of bikes, we add the positions of Bajaj from the left and right, then subtract 1 (because we are counting Bajaj twice). So, the total number of bikes is 17 (left) + 14 (right) - 1 = 30 bikes.
-
To find the number of bikes between Yamaha and Bajaj, we subtract the positions of Yamaha and Bajaj from the total number of bikes, then add 1 (because we are not counting Yamaha and Bajaj). So, the number of bikes between Yamaha and Bajaj is 30 (total) - 9 (Yamaha) - 14 (Bajaj) + 1 = 8 bikes.
