Atul finds that he is twelfth from the right and fourth from the left in a line of boys. How many boys should be added to the line so that there are 28 boys in the line?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → 13
Atul is counted in both positions, so boys in the line = position from the left + position from the right − 1.
Boys in the line now \(=4+12-1=15\)
Boys to be added \(=28-15=13\)
