Riva is 8 ranks ahead of Sunil in a class of 40. If Sunil's rank is 18th from the last. What is Riva's rank from the start?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Riva's rank from last is 26th (18 + 8 = 26)
Total = Starting Rank + Last Rank - 1
40 = Starting Rank + 26 - 1
40 = Starting Rank + 25
Starting Rank = 40 - 25
15th
