SSC CHSL 2025 PYQ — Question 40

SSC CHSL - 22 Nov 2025 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q40

G started walking straight from a point X. He turned 5 times right during his journey. Finally, he is facing towards east. In which direction he started walking from X? (He took no left turn)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Turning right 4 times brings the person back to the same direction.

5 Right Turns = 4 Right Turns + 1 Right Turn

This means the effect is equivalent to just one Right Turn.

Order of Right Turns:

North → East

East → South

South → West

West → North

Therefore, to reach East, the direction must first be North.

Correct Answer: North
