Question:

Some players are standing in a queue. Veer is 15th from the front and Sanket is 20th from the rear end of the queue. Aryan is after Veer but has two players between him and Veer. Sanket is immediately after Aryan. How many players are there in the queue?

Options:

37

39

38

36

Correct Answer:

38

Explanation:

1) Veer is 15th from the front and Sanket is 20th from the rear end of the queue.

2) Aryan is after Veer but has two players between him and Veer.

So, Aryan is at (15 + 3) i.e, 1gth from the front end.

3) Sanket is immediately after Aryan.

So, Saket is 19th from the front end.

Therefore, total players in the queue = Sanket's position from the front end +
Sanket's position from the rear end - 1

= 20 + 19-1

= 39 - 1

= 38

Hence, there are 38 players in the queue
