There were a total of 65 people in the queue of a fair in which Rakesh was 30th from the front. What will be the position of Rakesh from the back of the queue?
Answer: C
The position from the back is the total number of people minus the position from the front, plus one, because the person's own place is counted in both positions.
\[ 65 - 30 + 1 = 36 \]
So Rakesh is 36th from the back. The value 35 (65 minus 30) is the usual slip, and it is not offered, and 34 and 33 and 31 come from subtracting more than needed. Check: the 29 people in front of him, himself, and the 35 behind him make 29 + 1 + 35 = 65, and he is 36th counting from the back since there are 35 people behind him.
