Answer 2

Answer:

24 students

Step-by-step explanation:

There are x number of students in the class.

If N ranks fifth in class then there are 4 students before N.

- - - - N

T is 6th after N and is in the middle of N and S. If T is 6th after N then there are 5 people between N and T.

- - - - N - - - - - T

Because T is in the middle of N and S, the number of students between N and T is equal to number of students between T and S. So, the number of students between T and S is five.

- - - - N - - - - - T - - - - - S

Because S is eighth from the last, there are seven students after S.

- - - - N - - - - - T - - - - - S - - - - - - -

So. if you count the number of students you get:

24
