Correct Answer: 56


Solution : Given:
Arti has scored fewer marks than 29 students and more marks than 26 students.

This means Arti has the 30th rank from the top and the 27th rank from the bottom.
So, the number of students in the class = (rank from top) + (rank from bottom) – 1
Number of students in the class = 30 + 27 – 1
= 56

So, the total number of students in the class is 56. Hence, the third option is correct.
