Question 144

How many students are there between Suresh and Mohan in a row of fifty students ?
I. Suresh is twelfth from the left end Mohan is seventeeth from the right end.
II. Suresh is six places away from Jayesh who is twentieth from the left end.

Solution

I : Suresh's position from left end = 12th

Mohan's position from right end = 17th

=> Mohan's position from left end = (50+1) - 17 = 34th

Thus, there are (34-12-1) = 21 students between Suresh and Mohan

Thus, statement I alone is sufficient.

II : There is no information about Mohan, thus it is insufficient.

$$\therefore$$ Statement I alone is sufficient.

=> Ans - (A)
