    Rohan ranks seventh from the top and twenty sixth from the bottom in a class. How many students are there in the class?

    A 31 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 32 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 33 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 34 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, To find the total number of students in the class, you add the rank from the top and the rank from the bottom and then subtract 1 (to avoid double-counting the student at the intersection): Total number of students = Rank from the top + Rank from the bottom - 1 In this case:    So, there are 32 students in the class.
