Which statement about the north-south position of four West Bank cities is correct?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. Jenin lies north of Nablus, which lies north of Ramallah, which lies north of Hebron
- Step 1: Jenin lies at the northern end of the West Bank. Step 2. Nablus is south of it, Ramallah is further south and Hebron is the southernmost. Answer: Jenin, then Nablus, then Ramallah, then Hebron. Why not the others: each other statement swaps cities that lie in a fixed north-south order.
