Instructions: For the question below, analyse the given information and conditions. Based on your understanding of relative positions and rankings, determine the correct order or position and answer the question. Scenario: In a column of 25 boys, Rakesh is 10th from the top. Question: What is Rakesh's position from the bottom?
16th
Here the total number in the column and a person's rank from one end are given, and we need the rank from the other end.
The rule is: position from bottom = (total) − (position from top) + 1.
We add 1 so that the person's own place is included when counting from the opposite end.
The total number of boys in the column is 25.
Rakesh is 10th from the top, so position from top = 10.
Substitute into the formula: position from bottom \(= 25 - 10 + 1 = 16\).
So Rakesh stands 16th when counted from the bottom of the column.
Hence Rakesh's position from the bottom is 16th.
