Position of George = 11th from right
Position of Neha = 10th from left
When they interchange positions, Neha's final position is George's initial position and vice versa.
So, Neha's final position is now 16 positions from the left which is also George's initial position.
And we know that George's initial position (i.e Neha's final position) was 11 positions from the right, i.e, there were 10 cadets to the right of George.
Therefore, the total number of cadets =
Neha's final position + 10
= 16 + 10
= 26
Therefore, Total number of cadets in the row = 26
Position of Neha = 10th from left

= 16 + 10
= 26
Therefore, Total number of cadets in the row = 26
