Q 3 - In a list, the rank of Mahesh was 16 from the top and whereas from bottom, the rank is 29. The list was about the passed-out students. Six students were failed due to non participation and 5 were failed. Find the total number of students present in the class.

Total number of passed out students including Mahesh is

Q 4 - In a nursery, I saw a group of small rose trees arranged in a row. However, one rose tree caught my attention very much. I started counting its rank from the left hand side and found out to be 12. When I started counting from right hand side, it was again 12!! What is the total number of rose trees that were arranged in that row?

Options :

Answer : A

Explanation

As the rank of the tree is same from either side, the total number of trees will be

12 + 12 - 1

= 23

Q 5 - Rank of Madhaba is 14^th from the bottom in a list of 64 boys. What would be his new rank from the top if 3 new boys will be added to the bottom of the list?

Options :

Answer : B

Explanation

Total number of students in the row = 64

Rank of Madhaba from the bottom = 14

So, rank of Madhaba from top would be = (64 - 14) + 1 = 51

Now as adding of new boys to the bottom of the list will not affect the rank of Madhaba from top, hence; his rank will be the same 51 from the top, even after the addition.

Q 6 - Rajshri and Shinde are ranked 8^th and 12^th respectively from the top among 31 students. Determine their ranks from the bottom.

Options :

Answer : C

Explanation

Total number of students present behind the rank of Rajshri = 31 - 8 = 23

Therefore Rajshri’s rank is 24^th from below.

The rank of Shinde is = 31 - 12 = 19

This means that Shinde’s rank will be 20^th from bottom.

Q 7 - In a row of students, the position of Hari is 7^th from the left hand side and that of Radhika is 12^th from the right hand side. Now for some reason, they interchanged their positions. Now, 22 is the new rank of Hari from the left hand side. Calculate the total number of students present in that row.

Options :

A - Cannot be determined

B - 32

C - Data is inadequate

D - 33

Answer : D

Explanation

Earlier the rank of Radhika was 12 from the right hand side. Now at the same position the rank of Hari is 22 from the left hand side. Hence adding both side students and eliminating the repeated person, the total number of students will be

= 22 + 12 - 1

= 33

Q 8 - In a row of 40 autos, the position of an auto from the top is 27 and similarly in a group of 30 cars, the position of a car from last is 13. Calculate the difference between the ranks of that auto from last and that car from 1^st.

Options :

Answer : B

Explanation

The rank of that auto from the last = (40 - 27) + 1 = 14

The rank of that car from 1^st will be = (30 - 13) + 1 = 28

Now the difference of rank is = 28 - 14 = 14

Q 9 - In a row, 35 boys were sitting. From the right hand side, the position of Kajal was 7^th whereas; position of Suresh from the left hand side was 9^th. Meera was sitting exactly in between Kajal and Suresh. Find the position of Kajal from Suresh.

Options :

Answer : D

Explanation

Number of viewers sitting in between Kajal and Suresh can be calculated as;

35 - (9 + 7) = 19

So we can say now that 9 viewers were present in between Kajal-Meera and Meera-Suresh. So the position of Kajal is 10^th from Suresh.
