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

In a row of girls, Shilpa is eighth from the left and Reena is seventeenth from the right. If they interchange their positions, Shilpa becomes fourteenth from the left.

How many girls are there in the row?

• A. 25
• B. 27
• C. 29
• D. 60
• E. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is E None of these

Since Shilpa and Reena interchange positions, so Shilpa's new position is the same as Reena's earlier position.
This position is 14th from the left and 17th from the right.
$\therefore$ Number of girls in the row
= 13 + 1 + 16 = 30
