Q 4 - Rank of Sujay is 15^th from the bottom in a group of 25 students. Find his rank from below if 3 new students will be added to the top of the list.

Options :

Answer : C

Explanation

Sujays current rank from top = (25 - 15) + 1 = 11

If 3 new students will be added the new rank from the top = 11 + 3 = 14

Q 5 - Five boys are arranged in a row on a table. From left hand side. Chintu has been placed in 2^nd position. Now sequentially new boy has been added on left and another on right side of the row. After how many iterations, the rank of Chintu will be 8^th from right hand side? Adding one boy to the right and left counts as 1 iteration.

Options :

Answer : C

Explanation

Adding boys to the left most side will not change the rank of Chintu but adding to the right will change the rank. Before adding, the rank of Chintu is 4^th from bottom. So if we calculate, we will notice that after 4 iterations, the rank of Chnitu will be 8^th from the right hand side.
