Question Details

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.

Correct Answer :

Option D

14m

14m

Solution :

The correct option is 14m.

Let us find the difference between the total distance walked by C and F to reach their respective final positions.

First, we calculate the total distance walked by C:
C walks 10m in a certain direction, then turns left and walks 6m.
Total distance walked by C = 10m + 6m = 16m.

Next, we calculate the total distance walked by F:
F walks 8m in a certain direction, then turns left and walks 22m.
Total distance walked by F = 8m + 22m = 30m.

Now, we find the difference between the two distances:
Difference = Distance walked by F - Distance walked by C
Difference = 30m - 16m = 14m.
