Answer:
Apologies for the oversight. Let's reevaluate the problem.
Initially, Neha is the 98th from the left end, and Ankita is the 179th from the right end.
After they interchange their places, Neha becomes the 219th from the left end.
Let ( N ) be the total number of girls in the row.
The equation representing the given information is:
[tex]\[ 98 + (N - 179) = 219 \][/tex]
Solve for ( N ):
[tex]\[ N - 81 = 219 \]
[/tex]
[tex]\[ N = 300 \][/tex]
So, there are 300 girls in the row.
None of the provided options (A. 289, B. 386, C. 397, D. None of these) matches the result ..
