Rohan is 17th from the top in a class. Ajay is five ranks below Rohan and is 29th from the bottom. How many students are there in the class?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → 50
Find Ajay’s rank from the top first. Then use total = rank from the top + rank from the bottom − 1.
Ajay is five ranks below Rohan: \(17+5=22\)nd from the top
Ajay is 29th from the bottom
Students in the class \(=22+29-1=50\)
