Below is the diagram showing the positions of the five workers on the factory floor:
Meena is at the centre.
Sohan is 50 meters to the right (east) of Meena.
Ravi is 70 meters south of Sohan.
Iqbal is 30 meters to the west of Meena.
Priya is 100 meters north of Ravi (or 30 meters north of Meena).
The dashed line shows the supervisor&rsquo;s walking path:
Iqbal &rarr; Meena &rarr; Sohan &rarr; Ravi &rarr; Priya, totalling 250 meters.
