1. If Atul finds that he is twelfth from the right in a queue of boys and fourth from the left, how many boys should be added to the queue so that there are 28 boys in the queue ?
(a) 12
(b) 13 (ANS)
(c) 14
(d) 20
Hints & Solutions : From formula, total number of boys in the queue = (Atul's rank from left) + (Atul's rank from right) - 1
= 12 + 4 - 1 = 15
∴ Total number of boys that should be added
= 28 - 15 = 13.
2. Manish ranked sixteenth from the top and twenty ninth from the bottom among those who passed an examination. Six boys did not participate in the competition and five failed in it. How many boys were there in the class ?
(a) 40
(b) 44
(c) 50
(d) 55 (ANS)
Hints & Solutions : From formula, total number of passed students = (Manisha's rank from the top) + (Manisha's rank from the bottom) - 1
= 16 + 29 - 1 = 4
∴ Total number of boys in the class
= Passed students + failed students + absent students
= 44 + 6 + 5 = 55
3. Aruna ranks twelfth in a class of forty six. What will be her rank from the last ?
(a) 33
(b) 34
(c) 35 (ANS)
(d) 37
Hints & Solutions : From formula,
Aruna's rank from the last = (total number of girls in the class) - (Aruna's rank from the top) + 1
= 46 - 12 + 1 = 47 - 12 = 35th
4. Ravi is 7 ranks ahead of Sumit in a class of 39. If Sumit's rank is seventeenth from the last, what is Ravi's rank from the start ?
(a) 14th
(b) 15th
(c) 16th (ANS)
(d) 17th
Hints & Solutions : Ravi is 7 ranks ahead of Sumit. That means, 6 students are there between Ravi and Sumit. Sumit's rank is 17th from the last.
Total number of students = 39
Total number of boys before Ravi = 39 - (16 + 1 + 6 + 1)
= 39 - 24 = 15
∴ Ravi's rank is 16th from the start.

= 10 - 9 + 1 = 2 = 2nd
