Question

Vijay is 13^th from the right end in a row of 45 boys. What is his position from the left end ?

• A. 32^nd
• B. 33^rd
• C. 34^th
• D. 35^th

Hint:

Position from left = 45 - 13 + 1.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding the Question:
Vijay stands in a row of 45 boys. We know his place counted from the right end. We need his place counted from the left end.

Step 2: Key Formula:
Position from left = Total number of boys - Position from right + 1.

Step 3: Calculation:
Position from left = 45 - 13 + 1.
\[ 45 - 13 + 1 = 33 \]

Step 4: Check the options:
32nd would need 45 - 32 + 1 = 14th from the right. 34th would give 12th from the right. 35th would give 11th from the right. Only 33rd gives 13th from the right.

Final Answer:
Vijay is 33rd from the left end. \[ \boxed{33^{\text{rd}}} \]
