Three persons A, B and C arc standing in a queue. The number of persons between A and B is 5 and eight persons between B and C. If the number of persons ahead of C is 3 and behind A is 21, then what will be the minimum number of persons in the queue? Correct Answer 28

Note: Minimum number of persons = Overlapping case

Maximum number of persons = without overlapping case.

Minimum number of persons = Total distance (counting from either one end) – 1 = 22 + 3 + 4 – 1 = 28.

Hence, the correct answer will be option 3.
