S13. Ans(b)
Sol. Clearly, Ashu is 18th from the right end and
Yatin is 35th from the left end and 15th from the right end of the row
So, number of boys in the row = (35 -1 + 15) = 49
Now, Ashu is 18th from the right
Ashu from left end= 49- (18-1)=32
Hence, Ashu is 32th from the left end of the row.
