Explanation

Let's break it down step by step:

  1. Sakshi's new position after shifting
    • When Sakshi moves 4 places to the left, she becomes 10th from the left end.
  2. Find her original position from the left
    • Since she moved 4 places left, her original position from the left was:
      10 + 4 = 14
    • So, originally, she was 14th from the left end.
  3. Find her position from the right
    • The total number of girls in the row is 26.
    • Position from the right end = (Total positions + 1) - Position from the left end
      = (26 + 1) - 14
      = 27 - 14
      = 13

Correct Answer:

D: 13th
