Directions (18-21): Read the given information carefully and answer the related questions:
Six persons A, B, C, D, E and F stand in a row in the same order from right to left. Three of them face south and three face north direction. Consecutive distance between any two persons is 8m. They all start walking either in north or south direction, covering some certain distances, then reach their final positions.
A walks 14m in a certain direction and then turns right and walks 20m to reach his final position. C walks 10m in certain direction and then turns left and walks 6m to reach his final destination. E walks 6m in a certain direction and then turns left and walks 8m to reach his final position. F walks 8m in certain direction and then turns left and walks 22m to reach his final position. D walks 16m in a certain direction and then turns right and walks 6m to reach his final position. B walks 12m north and then turns left and walks certain meter to reach his final position which is in the south of D’s final position. C’s final destination is not in south-east of F’s final destination.
Find the difference between the distance walked by C and F.
Correct Answer :
14m
Solution :
To find the difference between the distance walked by C and F, we need to calculate the total distance covered by each person individually:
1. Distance walked by C:
According to the given information, C walks 10m in a certain direction and then turns left and walks 6m to reach his final destination.
Total distance walked by C = 10m + 6m = 16m.
2. Distance walked by F:
According to the given information, F walks 8m in a certain direction and then turns left and walks 22m to reach his final position.
Total distance walked by F = 8m + 22m = 30m.
3. Difference between the distances walked by C and F:
The difference between their distances can be calculated as follows:
Therefore, the difference between the distance walked by C and F is 14m.
