Manisha ranked sixteenth from the top and twenty-ninth from the bottom among those who passed an examination. Six boys did not participate in the competition and five failed in it. How many boys were there in the class?

  • A.40            
  • B.44            
  • C.50              
  • D.55            

Answer: D

Correct answer: 55

Among those who passed, Manisha is 16th from the top and 29th from the bottom, so \( 16 + 29 - 1 = 44 \) passed. Five more failed, making 49 who sat the examination, and six did not take part at all: \[ 44 + 5 + 6 = \mathbf{55} \]
