Kavita is 20 th from the right end

ShankarBedia: How ? Decribe me Please.......
Aryendra: Well you gotta draw a line then mark the position of Divya and kavita as D and V.Then as Divya is 9th there will be 8 children on the left ,similarly 12 children to the right of kavita
Aryendra: Now we gotta find the number of children in between them ,then our work will be easier .
Aryendra: Now since on interchanging positions Divya becomes 17th from the left ,no. Of children between these two positions should be( (17-9)-1){ e.g-think it of as the no.of children between the 1st and 3rd being 1 )
Aryendra: Now the total no. Of children = 8+1+7+1+12 counting from the left .( 1+1 for Divya and kavita). Now just place kavita at the interchanged position and count from the right (12+1+7) I.e 19 children on the right therefore her position is the 20 th
Aryendra: Sorry 12+1+7=20;I.e twenty children on the right ,hence the position will be 21st
