    Question

    A certain number of people are sitting in a row and facing North, if Tom is sitting 2nd from the left end and 60th from the right end, then find the total number of people sitting in a row?

    A.

    60

    B.

    61

    C.

    68

    D.

    66

    Correct option is B

    Given:

    A certain number of people are sitting in a row and facing North.
    1) Tom is sitting 2nd from the left end.
    2) Tom is sitting 60th from the right end.
    Logic:

    Total People = (Position from Left End) + (Position from Right End) - 1

    Total People = 2 + 60 - 1

    Total People = 62 - 1
    Total People = 61
    So, the total number of people sitting in a row = 61.

    Hence, the correct answer is "Option B".
