Question: What is Sachin's rank from the top in a class of 25 students ?
Statements:
- Sachin ranks three ranks above Amit who ranks 18th from the bottom.
- Sachin's rank from the top is two ranks below Deepti who ranks 23rd from the bottom.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
From I, We know that in a class of 25 students, Amit ranks 18th from the bottom and 8th from the top.
Sachin is three ranks above Amit and so, Sachin ranks 5th from the top.
From II, Deepti ranks 23rd from the bottom and hence, 3rd from the top. Sachin, being 2 ranks below Deepti, is, thus, 5th from the top.
