LEFT

There are only 2 students between Ramesh and Mahesh.

Answer 2

Solution :-

→ Total students in class = 30

→ Position of Mahesh from left end = 14

→ Position of Ramesh from right end = 20

checking if they are crossing each other or not,

→ Position of mahesh + Position of ramesh = 14 + 20 = 34 .

since 34 is greater than total students in class . Therefore, they are crossing each other .

So,

→ Position of Mahesh from right end = (30 + 1) - 14 = 17

→ Position of Ramesh from left end = (30 + 1) - 20 = 11

then,

→ Number of students between Ramesh and Mahesh = Total number of students - ( Ramesh’s position + Mahesh’s position) = 30 - (17 + 11) = 30 - 28 = 2 students (Ans.)

Hence, there are 2 students between Ramesh and Mahesh .
