In a class of 52 students, Anjali's rank is thrice that of Anita. There are 4 students who have ranks worse than that of Anjali. Anita's rank in the class is:

16th

The correct answer is Option (3) → 16th

• Total students = 52

• Anjali's rank = 3 × Anita's rank

• 4 students have ranks worse than Anjali

If 4 students have ranks worse than Anjali, that means Anjali is at rank 48 (because there are only 52 students in total):

Anjali’s rank=52−4=48

Now use the relationship:

Anjali’s rank=3×Anita’s rank

48 = 3×Anita’s rank

Anita’s rank = 48/3 = 16
