  • Options
  • A. Thumb
  • B. Index finger
  • C. Ring finger
  • D. Middle finger

  • Correct Answer
  • Middle finger 

    Explanation

    Clearly, while counting the numbers associated to the thumb will be 1,9,17,25,.........
    i.e., numbers of the form (8n + 1 ).
    where n=1,2,3...
    Since 1994 = 249 × 8 + 2, so 1993 shall correspond to the thumb and 1994 to the index finger and 1995 to the middle finger.
