Direction: A person is asked to put in a basket one apple when ordered one, one guava when ordered Two, one orange when ordered Three and is asked to take out from the basket one apple and one guava both when ordered Four. The order sequence executed by the person is as follows; 12332142314223314113234 How many guavas will be there in the basket at the end of the above order sequence?
1. 1
2. 2
3. 3
4. 4

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : 2

We are asked to find out the number of guavas in the basket at the end of the above order sequence. Hence, we will use codes only related to guava

codes for guava are 2 - When a person orders a guava this code is given, 4 - One guava is taken out when this code is given.

on observing the sequence 12332142314223314113234

Number of guavas left in the basket at the end = 1+1-1+1-1+1+1-1+1-1 = 2

Hence, the guavas left in the basket at the end will be '2'.
