What is the rank of P from the bottom in a class of 30 students ?

Statements:

1. M is third from the top and there are five students between M and P.

2. The rank of K is fourth from the bottom and there are 17 students between K and P.

  • A.1 alone is sufficient while 2 alone is not sufficient
  • B.2 alone is sufficient while 1 alone is not sufficient
  • C.Either 1 or 2 is sufficient
  • D.Neither 1 or 2 is sufficient

Answer: C

Correct answer: Either 1 or 2 is sufficient

Statement 1 places M third from the top with five students between him and P, so P is ninth from the top and therefore twenty-second from the bottom in a class of thirty. Statement 2 places K fourth from the bottom, that is twenty-seventh from the top, with seventeen between him and P, giving P ninth from the top again. Each alone settles it.
