Solution

The correct option is C 29
As per the information given,
Ashish is 15th from left. Therefore, there are 14 students ahead of him.
Sachin is 7th from right. i.e. there are 6 students behind him.
When they both interchange positions, then,
Sachin is 15th from right i.e. there are 14 students ahead and behind Sachin.
Total number of students= 14+1+14=29
