Let's solve the problem step by step.
Understanding the Image:
The image shows a line of 10 people standing at a bus stop. Each person is labeled with a name underneath them in blue boxes. The order from
left to right is:
1.
Kate
2.
Liz
3.
Mr. Boris
4.
Mary
5.
Susan
6.
James
7.
Tim
8.
Helen
9.
Mrs. Grey
10.
Janet
We are asked to answer where each person is — meaning we need to identify their
position in the line, either by number or relative position (e.g., first, second, etc.).
