The person who has Car T takes his car as he wants to go to the saloon so he moves 54 m in north direction from there he turns to his right and moves 15 m then he turns left and moves 21m and after walking 8 m in west direction, he finally reached to the saloon. Car R is to the immediate right of Car P and the distance between them is 21 m. If Car S starts moving in south direction and after walking 32 m it turns to the left and covers 15 m before turning to right. After that it moves 12 m in the same direction. Now it moves 24 m in east direction and then turn left and walks 4m. Now Car S, Car R and another Car X will be in a straight line. Car X is parked exactly between Car R and Car S. There is only one car is parked to the right of Car Q. What is the distance between Car R and Car U?

  1. AOption (a)

    63 m

  2. BOption (b)

    100 m

  3. COption (c)

    102 m

    105 m

  5. EOption (e)

    None of these

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (d)D.

105 m

Why this answer is correct

Row order: S, P, R, T, Q, U. Distance P-R=21, R-T=28, T-Q=35, Q-U=42. Distance R to U = 28 + 35 + 42 = 105 m.

Direction(Q.156-160): Read the following information carefully and answer the questions given below: There are six cars – P, Q, R, S, T and U parked in a row facing north direction, but not necessarily in the same order. The distances between two adjacent cars are successive multiples of seven (i.e. if the distance between the 1st and the 2nd car is 7 m, 1st and the 3rd car is 14 m and between 1st and 4th car is 21 m and so on.) Information regarding all the cars is: Car T is to the left of Car U but not immediate left and the total distance between them is 77 m.

Car R is to the immediate right of Car P and the distance between them is 21 m. If Car S starts moving in south direction and after walking 32 m it turns to the left and covers 15 m before turning to right. After that it moves 12 m in the same direction. Now it moves 24 m in east direction and then turn left and walks 4m. Now Car S, Car R and another Car X will be in a straight line. Car X is parked exactly between Car R and Car S. There is only one car is parked to the right of Car Q. What is the position of the saloon with respect to the initial position of Car T?

  1. AOption (a)

    North east

  2. BOption (b)

Correct answer

Answer: (a)A.

North east

Why this answer is correct

Car T moves 54m N, 15m E, 21m N, 8m W. Net displacement: 75m North and 7m East. Thus, North East.
