Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Place W at the extreme left.
Since W is far left,
\[
W
\]
occupies position 1.
As W is immediately left of V,
\[
W \quad V
\]
occupy positions 1 and 2.
Step 2: Use Y between V and Z. Possible arrangement: \[ W \quad V \quad Y \quad Z \] or \[ W \quad V \quad Z \quad Y \]
Step 3: Use U is right of Z and X is not at an end. After checking valid placements, the fourth position may contain either X or Y depending upon the arrangement satisfying all conditions. Therefore, \[ \boxed{\text{4th position = X or Y}} \] \[ \boxed{\text{Answer = (B)}} \]
Step 2: Use Y between V and Z. Possible arrangement: \[ W \quad V \quad Y \quad Z \] or \[ W \quad V \quad Z \quad Y \]
Step 3: Use U is right of Z and X is not at an end. After checking valid placements, the fourth position may contain either X or Y depending upon the arrangement satisfying all conditions. Therefore, \[ \boxed{\text{4th position = X or Y}} \] \[ \boxed{\text{Answer = (B)}} \]
