Question

In a row of boys 'Sumit' is fifteenth from the left and seventh from the right. How many boys are there in the row?

• A. $21$
• B. $22$
• C. $29$
• D. $31$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $21$

Here,

If Sumit is fifteenth from left, it means that there are 14 boys on his left.

Similarly, If he is seventh from the right, this means there are 6 boys on his right.

Pictorial representation-

[ 14 Boys ] Sumit [ 6 Boys ]

So, in total there are 14 + 1 + 6 = 21 Boys in that row.

Hence, Option A 21 is correct.
