In a row of 34 students facing North, Jignesh is 12th from the right end. If Kamlesh is 7th to the left of Jignesh, what is Kamlesh's position from the left end of the line?
16th
Determining Kamlesh's Position from the Left End
This problem involves calculating the position of an individual in a line based on relative positions. We are given the total number of students, the position of one student (Jignesh) from one end, and the relative position of another student (Kamlesh) to the first.
Step 1: Calculate Jignesh's Position from the Left
We know the total number of students in the row is 34. All students are facing North.
Jignesh's position is given as 12th from the right end.
To find Jignesh's position from the left end, we can use the formula:
Position from Left = Total Students - Position from Right + 1
Applying the values:
Jignesh's Left Position = \(34 - 12 + 1\)
Jignesh's Left Position = \(22 + 1 = 23^{rd}\)
So, Jignesh is the 23rd student from the left end.
Step 2: Determine Kamlesh's Position Relative to Jignesh
The problem states that Kamlesh is 7th to the left of Jignesh.
Since Jignesh is 23rd from the left end, and Kamlesh is 7 positions further to the left, we subtract 7 from Jignesh's left position.
Step 3: Calculate Kamlesh's Position from the Left End
Kamlesh's Left Position = Jignesh's Left Position - 7
Kamlesh's Left Position = \(23 - 7\)
Kamlesh's Left Position = \(16^{th}\)
Therefore, Kamlesh is the 16th student from the left end of the line.
Summary of Positions
| Student | Position from Right End | Position from Left End |
|---|---|---|
| Jignesh | 12th | 23rd |
| Kamlesh | (Calculable, but not needed) | 16th |
The calculation confirms that Kamlesh's position from the left end is 16th.
