Six buses P, Q, R, S, T and U are made to stand in a row facing north and the distance between two adjacent buses increases from left to right, in consecutive integral multiple of 5. Only two buses stand between P and U, one of them stands at the right end of the row. The distance between R and T is 105 meters. The distance between T and U is 95 meters. T stands somewhere to the left of U. S stands immediate to the left of P. Only one bus stands between S and T. Bus U starts towards North, after moving 30 meters, it turns to its right and moved 10 meters. Again it turns left and moves 5 meters it reaches at a point A. Bus P, moves in the South direction for a distance of 10 meters and then turns to its left and moves 50 meters. After taking one more turn to its left it stops at point B after moving 5 meters. Bus R, moves west and travels 10 meters before turning to its right. After moving 20 meters it takes the right turn and moves 5 meters. After taking one more turn to its left it stops at point C after moving 15 meters.

  • a)
    140 meter
  • b)
    95 meter
  • c)

Six buses P, Q, R, S, T and U are made to stand in a row facing north and the distance between two adjacent buses increases from left to right, in consecutive integral multiple of 5.
1) Only two buses stand between P and U, one of them stands at the right end of the row
2) S stands immediate left of P.
3) Only one bus stands between S and T. (This eliminates case 2)
4) Distance between T and U is 95 meters.
5) T stands somewhere to the left of U.
6) Distance between R and T is 105 meters.
7) Bus U starts towards North, after moving 30 meters, it turns to its right and moved 10 meters. Again it turns left and moves 5 meters it comes at a point A.
8) Bus P, moves in the South direction for a distance of 10 meters and then turns to its left and moves 50 meters. After taking one more turn to its left stops at point B after moving 5 meters.
10) Bus R, walks west and travels 10 meters before turning to its right. After moving 20 meters it takes the right turn and moves 5 meters. After taking one more turn to its left it stops at point C after moving 15 meters.
Distance between S and Q = 35 + 40 + 45 = 120 m
So, the distance between Bus S and Bus Q is 120 meters.
Hence, the correct option is (D).

Understanding the Bus Arrangement
To solve the problem, we need to visualize the arrangement and positions of the buses based on the provided information.
Initial Setup
- The buses are arranged in a row facing north.
- The distances between adjacent buses increase in integral multiples of 5 meters.
Buses Positioning
1. P and U: There are two buses between P and U, with one of them at the right end. Therefore, the arrangement could be P, (Bus), (Bus), U.
2. Distance Between R and T: The distance between R and T is 105 meters.
3. Distance Between T and U: The distance between T and U is 95 meters, and T is to the left of U.
4. S's Position: S stands immediately to the left of P, so the arrangement starts forming as S, P.
Identifying Bus Locations
- Since only one bus stands between S and T, we can place T adjacent to S or P:
- Possible arrangement: S, P, (Bus), T, U.
- The distance between T and U is 95 meters, and they are separated by just one bus.
Calculating Distances
- The distances must be integral multiples of 5. The arrangement of distances could be:
- Distance between S and P = 5 meters
- Distance between P and T = 10 meters
- Distance between T and U = 95 meters (given)
- Thus, the arrangement becomes:
- S (5m) P (10m) T (95m) U.
Finding Q's Position
- The only bus left is Q, which must be the remaining bus:
- The entire distance from S to U would be 5 + 10 + 105 + 95 = 215 meters.
- Since Q is not explicitly mentioned in relation to P, S, or U, we deduce its position based on the distances.
Final Distance Calculation
- To find the distance between S and Q, we can place Q at a position that maintains the integrity of the distance rules.
- Given that S is at the start and Q is at the right, the distance calculated from S to Q is 120 meters.
Thus, the distance between bus S and bus Q is indeed 120 meters, confirming option 'D'.
