A. 15 m.
B. 6 m.
C. 12 m.
D. 25 m
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
She goes 15 m South, then 12 m East (left turn), then 5 m South (right turn). Total South = 20 m. When she turns and walks 20 m (implying a 180° turn to go North), the 20 m North cancels out the 20 m South. She is left exactly 12 m East of the starting point.
