Answer 2

The boy is facing the north direction at this stage of his journey.

Given:

Boy's home is east facing.

First, he turns right and then turns left. Again turns left to return home.

To find:

The direction he faces now.

Explanation:

The whole scenario is shown in the picture attached.

When he left home and reaches the temple and took his right turn his direction will be south, (the marketplace). Then he turned left to reach the flower shop, at that time he was heading the east. After that, he took a left turn, toward home, he heads in the north direction.

Hence, the boy is in the north direction.
