Question
In a row of children, Neeta is 15th from the left end of the row. If she is shifted towards the right end of the row by four places, she becomes 8th from the right end. How many children are there in the row?Options2728NONE2426
Solution
The problem can be solved in the following steps:
- Neeta is initially 15th from the left end of the row.
- She is then shifted 4 places to the right, which means her new position from the left end is 15 + 4 = 19th.
- After the shift, she is 8th from the right end of the row.
- So, the total number of children in the row is 19 (her position from the left) + 8 (her position from the right) - 1 (because we have counted Neeta twice) = 26.
So, there are 26 children in the row.
