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.
