Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer is 44 because the question states that he ranks 8 the from the top and 37 th from the bottom .we can add 37 and 8to get total students .and then subtract 1 from it as he is one man only .(37+8)-1=45-1=44

Answer 2

Given:

We have given the rank of ravi from top is 8th and 37th from the bottom in a class.

To Find:

We have to find the number of students?

Step-by-step explanation:

• We have a class in which the student named Ravi has a rank 8th from the top and 37th from the bottom.
• For finding the total number of students in the class we will follow with:
• Since the rank of Ravi from top is 8th and from the bottom is 37th we will add both value we will get
• 37+8=45.
• Now if simply see the question on adding both rank will not give the number of students in class. We can observe in 45 students ravi is repeated two times because we just added his rand from both the position.
• Thus, to get the number of student in class we will subtract 1 from 45 we will get

        45-1=44

Hence, total number of students in class are 44.

Thus,B is the correct option.
