Question

Directions:- Study the following information carefully to answer the question given below.

All the roads of a city are either perpendicular or parallel to one another. The roads are all straight. Roads A, B, C, D and E are parallel to one another. Roads G, H, I, J, K, L and M are parallel to one another. Road A is 1 km East of road B. Road B is $\frac{1}{2}$ km West of Road C. Road D is 1 km West of road E. Road G is $\frac{1}{2}$ km South of road H. Road I is 1 km North of road J. Road K is $\frac{1}{2}$ km North of road L. Road K is 1 km South of road M.
If road E is between B and C, then distance between A and D is _____.

• A. $\frac{1}{2}$ km
• B. 1 km
• C. 1.5 km
• D. 1.5 - 2.0 km
• E. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is D 1.5 - 2.0 km

From the given information, we can draw the following diagram:
From the first three information; we have

From the last four information, we have


The distance between A and D is $1\frac{3}{4}$ km. Clearly, it is between 1.5 and 2 km.
Hence, the required answer is (D).
