Two pickup trucks X and Y start from the same place. Truck X travels East 15 km and then turns right and travels 8 km. In the meanwhile truck Y travels 7 km West, then 3 km North, then 2 km West , then it turns left and travels 11 km. Where is truck Y with respect to truck X?

Solution

Let the two pickup trucks X and Y start from the same place S. Truck X (black) travels East 15 km to reach R and then turns right and travels 8 km southwards to reach point X. In the meanwhile truck Y (red) travels 7 km West, then 3 km North to reach U, then 2 km West, finally it turns left and travels 11 km southwards to reach point Y.

=> XY = $$15+7+2=24$$ km

$$\therefore$$ Truck Y is 24 km west with respect to truck X.

=> Ans - (D)
