Solution:
Students let us understand the Logic behind this Question and lets understand how to solve it. As a first step lets first understand the logic behind the Output. If you will see the final output you will observe the following:
(i) The machine rearranges the numbers and words in each step alternatively and starting from a number.
(ii) The numbers are arranged in ascending order from left to right.
(iii) The words are arranged in descending order in terms of the number of alphabets in a given word from left to right. If two words contain the same number of alphabets then they are arranged in increasing order of the number of vowels in the word. Now lets take the arrangement given in the Question

18 boys, 9 girls
9 boys, 18 girls
17 boys, 10 girls
Can’t be determined
None of these
Solution:
After interchanging the position, Raman position will be 8th from right end and his position is given from left end that is 20th.
Hence total number of persons in a row= 20+8-1= 27 persons
Boys and girls ratio is given 6:3
Let boys= 6x and girls=3x 6x+3x= 27,
hence x=3 Boys= 18, girls= 9
Hence total number of persons in a row= 20+8-1= 27 persons
Boys and girls ratio is given 6:3
Let boys= 6x and girls=3x 6x+3x= 27,
hence x=3 Boys= 18, girls= 9
