Answer:
You have not mentioned the number of boys ahead of Sanjay, so let it be 7.
Let the no of boys in the class be x
therefore the no of girls in the class=2x
the total no of students in the class =60
2x + x =60
3x=60
x=20
therefore the no of girls and boys on the class is 40 and 20 respectively.
there are 9 boys ahead of Sanjay, therefore no of boys behind him= total no of boys-10(since Sanjay is also a boy)
=20-10
=10.
THEREFORE THERE ARE 10 BOYS AFTER SANJAY IN THE RANK.
