Answer 1

The correct answer to this question is option (3) 26th

• To find Anu's rank among girls from the other end, we need to calculate the total number of students in the class and the number of girls as well as boys.
• Anu's rank is 8th in the class and her rank from the other end is 52nd. It means there are 7 students in front and 51 people behind Anu. So, the total number of students = 7 + 1 + 51 = 59
• Ajay's rank among boys from the other end is 26th. It means that there are 25 boys behind Ajay in the class. His overall rank is 12th, and his rank among boys is 6th. So, there are 5 boys ahead of him in the class. Therefore, the total number of boys in the class is 25 + 1 + 5 = 31.
• Total number of girls = Total number of students - Total number of boys = 59 - 31 = 28
• Anu's rank among girls is 3rd from the front. We found that there are a total of 28 girls. It means 25 girls will be behind Anu.
• Hence, Anu's rank among girls from the other end is 26th.
• The correct answer to this question is option (3) 26th
