    Question

    A girl started to walk 2 km in North direction. She turned towards her right and walked 6 km and walked 3 km towards her left. Once again she took a left turn to walk 3 km before taking another left to walk 5 km. How far is she from the starting point?

    A.

    7 km

    B.

    5 km

    C.

    3 km

    D.

    4 km

    Correct option is C


    Ans. (c) 3 km
    Sol. Let's trace her path step-by-step:
    1. North 2 km
    2. Right → East 6 km
    3. Left → North 3 km
    4. Left → West 3 km
    5. Left → South 5 km
    Now compute her final coordinates relative to start:
    · Net North = 2 km + 3 km - 5 km = 0 km
    · Net East = 6 km - 3 km = 3 km
    So, she is 3 km east and 0 km north of the starting point ⇒ Distance = 3 km
    Correction: Final step rechecked:
    After going south 5 km from 5 km north (2+3), net south = 5 - 5 = 0 km net, error spotted.
    Recomputing:
    · North = 2 (first) + 3 (after first left) = 5 km
    · South = 5 km → Net North-South = 0 km
    · East = 6 km (right)
    · West = 3 km (third left) → Net East = 6 - 3 = 3 km
    So net movement: 3 km East, 0 km vertically Distance = 3 km
    Correct Answer: (c) 3 km
