In a row of children Nidhi is twelfth from left end and Radha is sixth...
Explanation:
Let's assume the total number of children in the row is 'x'.
According to the given information,
Nidhi is twelfth from the left end, so there are 11 children to her left.
Radha is sixth from the right end, so there are 5 children to her right.
When Radha is shifted to the left by two places, she will move to the eighth position from the right end. So, there will be 7 children to her right.
When Nidhi is shifted to the right by two places, she will move to the fourteenth position from the left end. So, there will be 13 children to her left.
Now, we are given that there are six children between Radha and Nidhi.
Therefore, the total number of children between them on both sides is (7+6+13) = 26.
So, the total number of children in the row is (26+1) = 27.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'D'.

As it is mentioned when we come to the children from left to right nidhi's position is 12th and when we count the children from right to left radha's position is sixth when we shift nidhi to right by two places nidhis position becomes 14th , and on the other hand when we shift Radha to write by two places her position becomes 8th and as mentioned, there is gap of six children between the two girls which means 8 + 6 + 14 = 28. hence the number of children in the row is 28.
