  • Question
  • In a row of children, Bhusan is seventh from the left and Motilal is fourth from the right. When Bhusan and Motilal exchange positions, Bhusan will be fifteenth from the left. Which will be Motilal's position from the right?


  • Options
  • A. Eighth
  • B. Fourth
  • C. Eleventh
  • D. Twelfth

  • Correct Answer
  • Twelfth 

    Explanation

    After exchanging positions, Bhusan becomes fifteenth instead of seventh from the left, it means there are 7 students between them. So Motilal's position from the right will become twelfth. [i.e., (15 ? 7) + 4 = 12]
