In a queue, Rahul is 19th from the front while Dinesh is 33rd from the end. Shubham is exactly between the two. If there are 85 people in the queue, what position does Shubham occupy from the front?
Explanation:
Rahul is 19th from the fron and Dinesh is 33rd from the end. There are 85 people in the queue.
Number of people between Rahul and Dinesh = 85 – 19 – 33 = 33
Shubham is the exactly between the Rahul and Dinesh, hence Shubham is (33 + 1)/2 = 17 places away from either Rahul or Dinesh.
Rahul---16 people---Shubham---16 people---Dinesh
∴ Shubham’s position from the from = 19 + 17 = 36th.
Hence, option (c).
