Two students A and B are ranked 9th and 13th respectively from the top in a class of 37 students. What will be their ranks (A & B respectively) from bottom in the class?
29, 25
Rank from bottom = Total students − Rank from top + 1. For A: 37 − 9 + 1 = 29. For B: 37 − 13 + 1 = 25. So the ranks from the bottom are 29 and 25 respectively, matching option (D), which is also the option marked in the answer sheet.
