Question

Indra is 7th from the left and Jaya is 5th from the right. When they interchange their positions, Jaya becomes 19th from the right. What is Indra's new position from left?

A.

21st

B.

19th

C.

20th

D.

23rd

Correct option is A

Given:
Indra is 7th from the left.
Jaya is 5th from the right.
After they swap places, Jaya becomes19th from the right.​
Solution: 
Jaya moves to Indra's position and becomes 19th from the right.
Since that position is the 7th from the left, we can find the total number of people using this:
Left position + Right position - 1 = Total
7 (from left) + 19 (from right) - 1 = 25 people
Jaya was originally 5th from the right.
That position (from the left) is:
25 - 5 + 1 = 21st from the left
So, when they swap, Indra moves to Jaya’s position, which is the 21st from the left.
Thus, correct option is (a).
