Correct Answer: 40
Solution : Given:
Total number of buses = Leftmost bus + Rightmost bus + 18 + 17 + 22 + 22 + Punjab bus + Raftaar bus
Total number of buses = 1 + 1 + 35 + 44 + 1 + 1 = 83
Now, find the number of buses between the leftmost bus and the middle bus.
Number of buses between the leftmost bus and the middle bus
= Total number of buses – (Leftmost bus + Rightmost bus + 17 + 22 + Punjab bus + Raftaar bus)
= 83 – (1 + 1 + 17 + 22 + 1 + 1)
= 83 – 43
= 40
The number of buses between the leftmost bus and the middle bus is 40.
Hence, the third option is correct.
