Solution

The correct option is A $10$
In this case-I, there is only even number of boys in between Ramesh and Sohan So Radhey cannot stand in the middle of two
In this case there is odd number of boys (i.e. 5) in between Ramesh and Sohan So Radhey can stand in the exact middle of two So the minimum number of boys standing in queue are 10
