Answer 1

Given :- Bindu is standing exactly in the middle of a line of girls . Asha is 6th to the left of Bindu and Ritu is 16th to Bindu's right.

Solution :-

we have given that, Ritu is 16th to the right of Bindu and Bindu is at exact centre .

For this to be true, There needs to be a minimum of 16 persons to the left and right of Bindu.

Therefore,

→ Total minimum No. girls in the line = girls to right of Bindu + girls to the left of Bindu + Bindu herself = 16 + 16 +1 = 33 . (2nd Part Answer.) (Option C).

Now,

→ Bindu Position from left in the line = 16 left + 1 Bindu = 17. (3rd Part Answer.) (Option D).

and, Asha is 6th to the left of Bindu .

Therefore,

→ Asha's Position from the Left = 17 - 6 = 11. (1st Part Answer.) (Option D).
