Question 182

How many children are there in the row ?
I. Manoj is twelfth from the left end and fourth to the left of Hari in that row.
II. Hari is eighth from the right end of that row.

Solution

NOTE :- Position from left end + Position from right end = Total students + 1


I : Manoj is 12th from left end and 4th to the left of Hari.

=> Hari's position from left end = 12+4 = 16th

We did not know the total no. of students from this.

Thus, I alone is not sufficient.

II : Hari's position from right end = 8th

We did not know the total no. of students from this.

Thus, II alone is not sufficient.


I & II : Combining the above two conditions, we get

Hari's position from left = 16th and from right = 8th

=> Total students = 16+8-1 = 23

Thus, I & II together are sufficient.
