Suresh is five ranks below the top student Samir in a class of forty students. What is Suresh's rank from the bottom in the class?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → 35th
The top student, Samir, is 1st, so five ranks below him is rank \(1+5=6\). In a class, rank from the top + rank from the bottom = number of students + 1, because the student is counted in both.
Suresh’s rank from the top \(=6\)
Rank from the bottom \(=40-6+1=35\)
