- 16
- 19
- 20
- 24
Correct Option: B
According to question,we have
Dipika's position = 11th from West
Sudesh's position = 15th from East end.
After interchanging their positions ,
Sudesh's current position = 9th from East end.
∴ Total number of persons in the row = Dipika's position + Sudesh's current position - 1
Total number of persons in the row = 11 + 9 – 1
Hence ,total number of persons in the row = 20 – 1 = 19
