Solutions

S1. Ans. (c)
Sol. Number of students in the class = 18+24-1= 41

S2. Ans. (d)
Sol. Number of boys who passed = (28 + 15 – 1) = 42
∴ Total number of boys in the class = (42 + 9 + 7) = 58

S3. 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.

S4. Ans. (d)
Sol. Harsh position from right end = (37+1-18) = 20
Students between them = (20-18-1) = 1

S5. Ans. (e)
Sol. Total number of persons in the row = (20+10-1) = 29
