Question

In a class of 45 students, a boy is ranked 20th. When two boys joined, his rank was dropped by one. What is his new rank from the end?

• A. 25th
• B. 26th
• C. 27th
• D. 28th

Hint:

The rank from the end can be calculated by subtracting the current rank from the total number of students and adding one.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The total number of students after the two new boys joined is 47. If the boy's rank is now 21st, his new rank from the end is \(47 - 21 + 1 = 27\).
