In a queue of children, Kashish is fifth from the left and Mona is sixth from the right. When they interchange their places, Kashish becomes thirteenth from the left. What will be Mona’s position from the right?
- 4th
- 8th
- 14th
- 15th
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C - 14th
Kashish moves to Mona's place, which is 13th from left; it was 6th from right, so total = 13 + 6 - 1 = 18. Mona moves to 5th from left, which is 18 - 5 + 1 = 14th from right.
