In a row of 30 girls, when Shivani was shifted to her left by 6 places, her number from the left end of the row becomes 8th. What will be the number of Urvashi from the right end of the row, if Urvashi was 4 places to right of shivani’s original position ?
In a row of 30 girls, when Shivani was shifted to her left by 6 places, her number from the left end of the row becomes 8th. What will be the number of Urvashi from the right end of the row, if Urvashi was 4 places to right of shivani’s original position ? Correct Answer 13<span style="position: relative; line-height: 0; vertical-align: baseline; top: -0.5em;font-size:10.5px;">th</span>
From the given information,
Shivani's original position from left = New position of Shivani from left + 6 = 8 + 6 = 14th
Urvashi's position from left = Shivani's original position from left + 4 = 14 + 4 = 18th
Now,
Total number of girls = 30
Urvashi's position from left + Urvashi's position from Right - 1 = 30
⇒18 + Urvashi's position from Right - 1 = 30
⇒17 + Urvashi's position from Right = 30
⇒Urvashi's position from Right = 30 - 17
⇒Urvashi's position from Right = 13th
So, Urvashi's position is 13th from the right end.
Hence, the 13th is the correct answer.
