Directions (1-5): Study the following information carefully and answer the questions that follow. In the given figure, the four line segments 1, 2, 3 and 4 are RA, SB, TC and UD respectively. The lengths of the lines are 39 m, 25 m, 27 m and 49 m respectively. Six people Mohan, Sohan, Rohan, Ankit, Vinit and Sumit are standing in line RA. All of them are facing north. The distance between them increases in multiples of 7 from the left end (i.e., if Mohan is at the left end of the line at point R, then the remaining people will stand at distances of 7 m, 14 m, 21 m, and so on from the end). Mohan is standing at the left end of the line. Two persons are standing between Mohan and Sohan. Rohan stands second to the left of Sohan. Sumit is an immediate neighbour of Rohan. Only one person stands between Sumit and Ankit. Similarly, six people Anita, Ambika, Amrita, Aanchal, Arpita and Ajita are standing in line UD. All of them are facing south. The distance between them increases in multiples of 9 from the right end (i.e., if the first person is at the right end of the line at point U, then the remaining people will stand at distances of 9 m, 18 m, 27 m, and so on from point U). Amrita is standing at the 3rd position from the right end. Arpita is an immediate neighbour of Amrita. Two people are standing between Arpita and Ajita.
