1.  A girl counted in the following way on the fingers of her left hand : She started by calling the thumb 1, the index finger 2, middle finger 3, ring finger 4, little finger 5 and then reversed direction calling the ring finger 6, middle finger 7 and so on. She counted upto 1994. She ended counting on which finger?

A. Ring finger
B. Middle finger
C. Thumb
D. Index finger

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Clearly, while counting the numbers associated to the thumb will be 1,9,17,25,.........
i.e., numbers of the form (8n + 1 ).
Since 1994 = 249 × 8 + 2, so 1993 shall correspond to the thumb and 1994 to the index finger.
