Starting From his house, Sumanth walks 200 feet straight towards North; we can write it as N200. Similarly, the other distances and directions can be considered and written as follows : (Notice that he covers 300 yards towards East; one yard = 3 feet and hence 300 yards = 900 feet)

 N200S100E900 Adding all south and all North distances and finding the net result, and also adding all East and all West distances and finding the net result, this can further be summarized as : N100E900

 Thus, the direction from his original position is North-East.

Let the number of students in the class be 'x'.
Given if 1 is absent rest of people can be divided into 6 equal parts i.e (x-1)/6.........(1)
And given if 2 are absent rest of people can be divided into 7 equal parts i.e (x-2)/7.....(2)
From (1)&(2), we get
x-1/6 = ((x-2)/7) + 1
=> x = 37.

Clearly, we may mark such sets of 3 numbers, in which the middle number is 8 and each of the two numbers on both sides of it is a factor of 8, as shown below :

2 8 3 8 2 4 8 2 4 8 6 8 2 8 2 4 8 3 8 2 8 6

So, there are two such 8's. Hence the answer is C.

The words in each pair are synonyms. Here Foresight and Anticipation are synonyms to each other and Insomnia is a synonym to Sleeplessness.
