Question

In a row of boys, siddharth is eighth from the left and virat is thirteenth from the right. If they interchange their positions. Sidharth becomes twenty third from the left. How many boys are there in the row

Answer 1

Answer:

The total number of boys are 35.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that Siddharth is eighth from the left and Virat is thirteenth from the right.

If they interchange their positions. Siddharth becomes twenty third from the left.

Twenty third from the left and Thirteenth from right is the same position which is the previous position of Sid.

Total boys =  22 Boys from left + 1 (Siddharth) + 12 boys on right of Sid (as the Siddharth position is thirteenth from the right)

Total boys = 22 + 1 + 12 = 35

Hence, the total number of boys are 35.
