Solution

To solve this problem, we need to understand the ranking system in the class.

  1. We know that Sanjay Dutt ranks fourth among the boys.
  2. We also know that Shivani ranks fifth among the girls.
  3. Additionally, we know that Sanjay is one rank below Shivani in the class.

This means that there are at least 3 boys and 4 girls who rank higher than Sanjay and Shivani respectively.

Since Sanjay is one rank below Shivani, this means that Shivani must be the 9th student in the class ranking (4 boys + 4 girls + Shivani herself).

So, Shivani’s rank in the class is 9th.
