Question : Directions: If Jhansi is 12 ahead in the rank of Prabha, who ranks 15th from last, then how many students are there in the class if Jhansi ranks 4th in order of merit?
Option 1: 23
Option 2: 27
Option 3: 30
Option 4: 31
Correct Answer: 30
Solution :
Given:
Jhansi is 12 ahead in the rank of Prabha, who ranks 15th from last, and Jhansi ranks 4th in order of merit.
Prabha's rank from last = 15
The rank of Jhansi from last = 15 + 12 = 27
The rank of Jhansi from the starting = 4
Total number of students in class = Jhansi's rank from last + Jhansi's rank from starting – 1
= 27 + 4 – 1 = 30
So, there are a total of 30 students in the class. Hence, the third option is correct.
