Raman's rank in an examination is 11th from the bottom and Shikha's rank in the same examination is 1st from the top If there are 11 students who ranked between Raman and Shikha, how many students are there in the class?Solution
Raman's rank is 11th from the bottom, and Shikha's rank is 1st from the top. This means there are 11 students ranked between Raman and Shikha. So, the total number of students in the class = (Rank of Raman) + (Number of students between Raman and Shikha) + (Rank of Shikha) = 11 + 11 + 1 = 23 Therefore, the correct answer is option 1. 23.
