n a row of 73 students, Sam is 19th from left end and Deep is 27th from right end if Raj is necessarily exactly between Sam and Deep. What is Raj’s rank from the right end?Options45374741
Solution
First, let's find out the position of Sam and Deep from the same end.
Since Sam is 19th from the left and Deep is 27th from the right, we need to find out who is closer to the left end.
The total number of students is 73. So, if we subtract Sam's position from the total, we get 73 - 19 = 54. This means Deep is closer to the left end because his position from the right (27) is less than 54.
Now, since Raj is exactly between Sam and Deep, his position from the left end would be the average of Sam's and Deep's positions from the left end.
To find Deep's position from the left, we subtract his position from the total number of students: 73 - 27 = 46.
So, Raj's position from the left end is (19 + 46) / 2 = 32.5. Since a person cannot be in a half position, we round this up to 33.
Finally, to find Raj's rank from the right end, we subtract his position from the total number of students: 73 - 33 = 40.
So, Raj's rank from the right end is 40. However, this option is not available in the given options. There might be a mistake in the question or the options provided.
