Question and options
If a person is standing at the sixth number in the queue from both the ends, the total number of persons in the queue are
- 12
- 9
- 13
- 11
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D - 11
Being sixth from the front means 5 people stand ahead; being sixth from the back means 5 stand behind. Counting the person once, the queue has 5 + 5 + 1 = 11. The answer 12 simply doubles 6 and so counts the person twice.
