In a queue, Arun is 10th from the front while Mukesh is 25th from behind and Maha is just in the middle of the two. If there be 50 persons in the queue what position does Maha occupy from the front?

17th 18th 19th 20th |
18th |
According to the question, there are 9 people in front of Arun and there are 24 people behind Mukesh. So, till this point we know that 35 (9 + Arun + Mukesh + 24) people are at their positions. Now, 15 people are left. The question states that Maha is in between Arun and Mukesh and then there are certain number of people i.e., 15 and Maha is in the middle. Thus, position of Maha is 9 + 1(Arun) + 7 + 1(Maha) = 18th |
