Question and options

A girl was going towards west, then she turned left, then turned 90∘90^\circ in clockwise direction. In which direction was she going now?
  1. East
  2. North
  3. West
  4. South

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C - West
Going west, a left turn makes her face south. A further 90 degree clockwise turn from south brings her to face west, so she is going west again; south would be the answer only if the second turn were ignored.
