Solution

The correct option is B 4
If Alex has to turn left in a turning, while walking from his house to the school, he will turn right in the same turning while returning from the school to his school.
For example, lets take a look at the route map below.
Alex will take left turns at the first four turnings in the route map while walking from his house to the school. He will take right turns at the smae turning while returning back. So while returning from the school to his house he will turn right four times.
