Solution

The correct option is C
15^th

There are two possible arrangements – one with overlapping and one without overlapping.

But since Priyanka is nearer than Natasha to the right end of the row, so only the overlapping arrangement follows.

No. of girls to the left of Natasha in the overlapped arrangement = 31-(1+16) = 14

Clearly, Natasha is 15^th from the left end of the row.
